The Best Day by Taylor Swift

...
I'm five years old
It's getting cold out I got
My big coat on
I hear your laugh and look up smiling at you
I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch
And the tractor rides, look now
The sky is gold
I hug your legs and fall asleep
On the way home

I dont know why
All the trees change in the fall
I know you're not scared of anything at all
Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away
But I know I had the best day
With you today

I'm thirteen now
And dont know how my friends
Could be so mean
I come home crying and you hold me tight
And grab the keys
And we drive and drive
Until we found a town far enough away
And we talk and window shop 'til I've forgotten
All their names

I don't know who I'm gonna talk to now at school
I know I'm laughing on the car ride home with you
Don't know how long it's gonna take to feel ok
But I know I had the best day
With you today

I have an excellent father
His strength is making me stronger
God smiles on my little brother
Inside and out he's better than I am
I grew up in a pretty house
And I had space to run and I
Had the best days with you

There is a video I found from back when
I was three
You set up a paint set in the kitchen and you're
Talking to me
Its the age of princesses and pirate ships
And the seven dwarfs
And Daddy's smart and you're the prettiest lady in
The whole wide world
And now I know why
All the trees change in the fall
I know you were on my side
Even when I was wrong
And I love you for giving me your eyes
Staying back and watching me shine and
I didn't know if you knew
So I'm taking this chance to say
That I had the best day
With you
Today
