Taylor Swift The Best Day song lyrics

I'm five years old, it's getting cold; I've got my big coat on

I hear your laugh and look up smiling at you, I run and run

Past the pumpkin patch and the tractor rides

Look now, the sky is gold

I hug your legs and fall asleep on the way home

I don't know why all the trees change in the fall

I know you're not scared of anything at all

Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away

But I know I had the best day with you today

I'm 13 now and don't know how my friends could be so mean

I come home crying and you hold me tight and grab the keys

And we drive and drive until we've found a town far enough away

And we talk and window shop 'til I forgot all their names

I don't know who I'm gonna talk to now at school

I know I'm laughing on the car ride home with you

Don't know how long it's gonna take to feel okay

But I know I had the best day with you today

I have an excellent father

His strength is making me stronger

God smiles on my little brother

Inside and out he's better than I am

I grew up in a pretty house and I had space to run

And I had the best days with you

There is a video I found from back when I was three

You set up a paint set in the kitchen and you're talking to me

It's the age of princesses and pirate ships

And the seven dwarves

And Daddy's smart

And you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world

Now I know why all the trees change in the fall

I know you were on my side even when I was wrong

And I love you for giving me your eyes

For staying back and watching me shine and

I didn't know if you knew, so I'm taking this chance to say

That I had the best day with you today
