[MGordon]

This is the best of times
Some say the worst of times
I guess it all depends
Which glass your drinking from
This is our only chance
To reserve a dance
That was started long ago

This is the best of times
Look beyond the signs
Don't let yourself be scared
Don't let them make you numb
This is the final day
Each and every day
We can return to love
That we keep running from
I see only beautiful faces
Hands eager to hold

Chorus: So when I see you down
I want to pick you up
I want to make you laugh
And remind you of the best of times
Living right before your eyes
So when I see you down
I'm gonna to pick you up
I'm gonna give you hope
And remind you of the best of times
We're living in the best of times

These are the best of times
Yours and Mine
We must never forget
How blessed we are
And though the sun must set
When we least expect it to
Remember all the times
Life was so sweet to you
And in the end it will seem
Life rolled by like a dream

Chorus: So when I see you down
I want to pick you up
I want to make you laugh
And remind you of the best of times
Living right before your eyes
So when I see you down
I'm gonna to pick you up
I'm gonna give you hope
And remind you of the best of times
We're living in the best of times

These are the daily trials
Yet, every once in a while
The clouds will disappear
Making everything else clear
When our emotions grow cold
The tide of winter takes hold
Don't give in to sorrow so soon
When spring could arrive this afternoon

Chorus: So when I see you down
I want to pick you up
I want to make you laugh
And remind you of the best of times
Living right before your eyes
So when I see you down
I'm gonna to pick you up
I'm gonna give you hope
And remind you of the best of times
We're living in the best of times
