Song Lyric Sunday was created by Helen Vahdati from This Thing Called Life One Word at a Time. For complete rules or to join in the fun, click here.

The theme for Song Lyric Sunday this week is “days.”

~~~~~~~~~~

Going with the first song that came to mind – another favorite!

The Sweetest Days is the lead single and title song from Vanessa’s third album The Sweetest Days. It was written by Jon Lind, Wendy Waldman, and Phil Galdston–the same winning team who penned the hit, Save the Best for Last.

The song peaked at #18 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #3 on Billboard’s Adult Contemporary chart in 1994.

Vanessa Williams has enjoyed much success on television, in movies, and on the stage, but I like her best when she sings! Amazing voice!

Enjoy!

The Sweetest Days

by Vanessa Williams

Written by Jon Lind, Wendy Waldman, and Phil Galdston

[Verse 1:]
You and I
In this moment
Holding the night so close

Hanging on
Still unbroken
While outside the thunder rolls

[Chorus:]
Listen now
You can hear our heartbeat
Warm against life’s bitter cold
These are the days
The sweetest days we’ll know

[Verse 2:]
There are times that scare me
Were rattle the house like a wind
Both of ours so unbending
We battle the fear within

[Chorus:]
All the while
Life is rushing by us
Hold it now and don’t let go
These are the days
The sweetest days we’ll know

[Bridge:]
So we’ll whisper a dream here in the darkness
Watching the stars
Till they’re gone
And then even the memories have all faded away
These days go on and on

[Chorus:]
Listen now
You can hear our heartbeat
Hold me now and don’t let go
These are the days
Every day is the sweetest day we’ll know

These are the days
The sweetest days we’ll know
