Brighter Days (Live) Lyrics

Loggins & Messina Brighter Days (Live)

I've seen brighter,
I've known brighter days
Lying alone in the shade of a Manzanita;

It's been sweeter,
Bitter sweeter days.
I know it's not for always,
But all I can say is
I've seen better days.
Is summer gone?
Has it been that long?
I guess that's what seasons will bring.
I'm caught again in the autumn wind,
But I remember spring.

For I've seen brighter days,
Seen lighter places to stay
Along my way.
Oh, I've seen brighter days

(Scat interlude)

I've seen warmer, soft and warmer nights
lying with love by my side in the sycamores
There've been finer, yeah.
I've seen mighty finer nights
Knowing what's wrong or what's right
Just don't matter when you're in warmer nights.

But here I am like a sea blown wind
Under my thunder and rain
I'll ride the waves till a sunny day
Comes to me again
For I've seen brighter days,
Seen lighter places to stay
Along my way.

Oh, I've seen brighter days.
