Verse 1
Went walking through town just the other day with nothing' much to do
As the sun came breakin' down through the clouds, I never seen the sky so blue
I saw a cajun man with a red guitar singing on the side of the street
I threw a handful of change in his beat up case and said play me a country beat
and it sounded like
Verse 2
Met up with some friends outside of town, we were headed towards the lake
I hopped into the back of a jacked up jeep and felt the wind upon my face
We got to the spot and the sun was hot, everybody was feelin' fine
So we jumped on in for a midday swim and then we lost all track of time
Chorus
It was the perfect day, what I'd give if I could find a way to
Stay, lost in this moment
Now, ain't worried about tomorrow
( )
When you're busy livin' in a perfect day
Verse 3
As the moon came out and the fire burned, everybody was singing' along
To some Ramblin' Man a little Curtis Loew and all them feel good songs
We danced all night without a care, no place we'd rather be
Cause these are the days we'll talk about, when we lived so wild and free
(Chorus)
Coda
We were sittin' in the sand as he grabbed my hand and then leaned in for a kiss
I couldn't help but think with the stars above it don't get much better than this
Outro
It was the perfect day, what I'd give if I could find a way to
Stay, lost in this moment
Now, ain't worried about tomorrow
When you're busy livin, feels like dreamin', slowly drifting, through this perfect day.
