No one told me there’d be days like these
Days of love and sun and fun
No one told me there’d be days like these
Where you and I would be as one

Days sitting by the sea - watching the boats as they head out for the day
The dogs running and the children laughing as they play
An early coffee but saving ourselves for lunch

No one told me there’d be days like these
Days of love and sun and fun
No one told me there’d be days like these
Where you and I would be as one

A walk along the river to a favourite place
Sitting and watching and listening as I watch your face
Are you really going to swim across the Thames?   A seat in a boat seems a better place

No one told me there’d be days like these
Days of love and sun and fun
No one told me there’d be days like these
Where you and I would be as one

And then lying next to you
I can hear you breathe and I can feel you near
I can look into your soulful eyes and see so far away
No one told me there’d be days like these - fine days indeed
No one told me there’d be days like these - fine days indeed
