a good day lyrics

Saw you at the football games, everybody knew your name
Once or twice I'd seen you smile at me
I was scared to ask you out, I was sure that you would turn me down
But I took that chance 'cause how cool would that be

Then what do you know you said you'd go and there we were

Walking barefoot down by the water, sun was hot but you made it hotter
Found that shade tree there by the riverbank
Sitting there, our toes all muddy, that first kiss was sweeter than honey
And every time that I look back I say man that was a good day

We all have our memories, the ones we lose, the ones we keep
The ones we know we'll always hold on to
I've had my days, good and bad but the best ones that I've had
Always seem to start and end with you

Yeah, those are the times I know that I won't forget

Like that July Fourth, hugged up by the levy
You squeezed me hard and told me you loved me
Fireworks flying taking our breath away
Felt like we were melting together, thinking I could do this forever
And every time that I look back I say man that was a good day

When we're finished with this ride and we're on the other side
Bet we'll look back at this life and say

Man that was a good day, man that was a good day
Man that was a good day, man that was a good day
Man that was a good day, man that was a good day
Oh, that was a good day, man that was a good day

I saw you at the football games, everybody knew your name
Once or twice I'd seen you smile at me
