lyrics

Went to the park, radio in hand
A longing in my heart, a ring and a plan.
Lying in the grass, a song began to play
The first I ever wrote for you, it was a good day.

It was a good day
It was a good day

I guess it's a good thing I like to use my hands
This little, yellow house has so many demands.
Late nights hanging cabinets, painting the walls
Taking breaks for making out and dancing in the halls.

It was a good day
It was a good day

Brown-eyed baby girl so little in my hands
You smile just like your mother and I'll do the best I can
To love you and to guide you, catch you when you fall
Now at night there's three of us dancing in the hall.

It was a good day
It was a good day

Oh, I know some days the rain can fall so hard.
Yeah, I know some days just living can break our hearts,
But mostly they're good days
Yeah, mostly they're good.
