I love this song. It makes me happy. I'm sitting here in the Barnes & Noble Cafe and seriously, it's hard not keep from smiling and singing along. I am holding it together by just tapping my foot. Whenever I love a song by The Cure I wonder if I would enjoy it so much if not sung by Robert Smith because his voice is so distinct and full of something. I don't want to say emotion because I'm not sure if that's true, but it is a voice one can pick out any time and besides the gloominess of The Cure, it's what sets them apart.


Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah...

The happiest day I ever knew
In a sea of gold down next to you
So blurred and tired under summer sun
You whispered dreams of a world to come...
We were so in love
In this sea of gold - so young and tired
Under summer sun hard by your side
Whispering dreams down next to you...
We were so in love - The happiest day
Yeah the happiest day I knew
But summer sun sea of gold
This perfect day oh so long ago
Whispering dreams so blurred and tired
We have to keep this day alive
Whispered dreams so young and tired
It's hard to hold this day inside

And the happiest night I ever had
Up next to you in silver sand
So scared and high under winter moon
You whispered dreams that would all come true...
We were so in love
Up next to you so fucked and high
Under winter moon it made me cry
Whispering dreams on silver sand...
We were so in love - The happiest night

Yeah the happiest night I had
But winter moon and silver sand
This perfect night in another land
Whispering dreams so scared and high
We have to keep this night alive
Whispered dreams so fucked and high
It's hard to hold this night inside

Yeah and every summer's sun I want again
And every winter's moon I want the same
My happiest day and my happiest night
Always next to you... And held deep inside...
Keeps me alive
