LYRICS

I remember those years so full of hope
It would not be much longer till
We had nice things and a bigger house
A car that started on the first try

Oh my, how the future was bright
My oh my, how the future was bright
Shinier than the shiniest light
The brightest thing was the future

My dad made calls to coworkers and friends
My mother took orders of cleaning supplies
The long stretched cord on the telephone
My sisters and me used to play limbo

Oh my, how the future was bright
My oh my, how the future was bright
Shinier than the shiniest light
The brightest thing was the future

There are two kinds of people
Those who get in the ring
And those on the outside
Some criticizing
Maybe they saw two people failing
But we saw two souls
Daring greatly

And oh my, how the future is bright
My oh my, how the future is bright
Oh my, how the future is bright
My oh my, how the future is bright
Shinier than the shiniest light
The brightest thing is the future
The brightest thing is the future

about

Aaron Espe Nashville, Tennessee

I'm probably what Bob Ross would sound like if he'd been a singer-songwriter. Calming, positive music with a hint of sadness.
