It was a Tuesday when I first met you At the start of the best days of our life An endless summer and our first kiss Yeah, I remember like it was yesterday What could go wrong? We were so young. The tide is strong, but we held on. Not even the great wide sea Could keep you away from me. One afternoon in the month of May We joined our hands as husband and as wife Another chapter in our book that tells The story of the best days of our life What could go wrong? We were so young. The tide is strong, but we held on. Not even the great wide sea Could keep you away from me. Now that we’re older we can appreciate That these are the best days of our life My little family, I would do anything To show how much you mean you me What could go wrong? We were so young. The tide is strong, but we held on. Not even the great wide sea Could keep you away from me. What could go wrong? We were so young. The tide is strong, but we held on. Not even the great wide sea Could keep you away from me. Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Oh, it’s the best days of our life Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Oh, it’s the best days of our life Oh, it’s the best days of our life Oh, it’s the best days of our life

Tell me all your dreams Tell me all your fears Tell me whatever you want To wash away your tears You watched over me When I was the fool You came whenever I called Always there for me Sometimes I think of you But now my chance has gone You listened to me talk About nothing at all You broke my heart when you left me Now I’m all alone Sometimes I think of you But now my chance has gone Sometimes I think of you But now my chance has gone Who are you? Who are you? Who are you? Who are you?

When I was younger A long, long time ago And all my dreams felt so, so clear I thought the world would Bend to my will But now I don’t know what to think So we sing “Hey---. Don’t stray--- From what we believe because of fear” So we sing “Hey---. Don’t stray--- From what we believe because of fear” I gaze to the stars To find the answers Ask for a light to show the way I close my eyes I see potential Why must these feelings follow me? So we sing “Hey---. Don’t stray--- From what we believe because of fear” So we sing “Hey---. Don’t stray--- From what we believe because of fear” So we sing “Hey---. Don’t stray--- From what we believe because of fear” So we sing “Hey---. Don’t stray--- From what we believe because of fear” So we sing “Hey---. Don’t stray--- From what we believe because of fear” So we sing “Hey---. Don’t stray--- From what we believe because of fear”

Dacw 'nghariad i lawr yn y berllan, Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al. O na bawn i yno fy hunan, Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al. Dacw'r ty, a dacw'r 'sgubor; Dacw ddrws y beudy'n agor. Ffaldi radl idl al, ffaldi radl idl al, Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al. Dacw’r dderwen wych ganghennog, Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al. Golwg arni sydd far serchog. Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al. Mi arhosaf yn ei chysgod Nes daw ‘nghariad i ‘ngyfarfod. Ffaldi radl idl al, ffaldi radl idl al, Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al. Dacw'r delyn, dacw'r tannau; Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al. Beth wyf gwell, heb neb i'w chwarae? Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al. Dacw'r feinwen hoenus fanwl; Beth wyf nes heb gael ei meddwl? Ffaldi radl idl al, ffaldi radl idl al, Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al. Ffaldi radl idl al, ffaldi radl idl al, Tw rymdi ro rymdi radl idl al.
