Lyrics
Went walking through town just the other day
Reflecting on a recent stroll through town
with nothin much to do.
Not having specific plans or activities
As the sun came breakin down through the clouds
Describing a moment when the sun breaks through clouds
I never seen the sky so blue
Expressing the exceptional blueness of the sky
I saw a cajun man with a red guitar singing
Observing a Cajun man playing a red guitar on the street
on the side of the street
Setting the scene of street performance
I threw a handful of change in his beat up case
Contributing money to the street performer's case
and said play me a country beat
Requesting a country music beat from the performer
And it sounded like....
Indicating approval of the music
Met up with some friends outside of town
Meeting friends and heading towards a lake
we were headed towards the lake
Describing the destination of the lake
I hopped into the back of a jacked up jeep
Getting into the back of a lifted jeep
and felt the wind upon my face
Feeling the wind while traveling
We got to the spot and the sun was hot,
Arriving at the destination with a hot sun
everybody was feelin fine.
Everyone feeling good
So we jumped on in for a midday swim
Joining a midday swim
and then we lost all track of time.
Losing track of time while having fun
It was the perfect day
Describing the day as perfect
What I'd give if I could find a way to stay
Expressing a desire to prolong the perfect moment
Lost in this moment now
Being fully present in the current moment
Ain't worried about tomorrow
Not worrying about the future
When you're busy livin in a perfect day.
Emphasizing the joy of living in the present
As the moon came out and the fire burned
Transitioning to the evening with a fire burning
everybody was singin along
Everyone singing along to songs
To some Ramblin' Man a little Curtis Loew
Specifically referencing "Ramblin' Man" and "Curtis Loew"
and all them feel good songs
Mentioning feel-good songs
We danced all night without a care, no place we'd rather be
Dancing carefree without any concerns
Cause these are the days we'll talk about,
Highlighting these memorable days
when we lived so wild and free
Recalling a time of living freely
It was the perfect day
Reiterating the perfection of the day
What I'd give if I could find a way to stay
Expressing a wish to extend the ideal moment
Lost in this moment now
Being immersed in the present
Ain't worried about tomorrow
Not being concerned about the future
When you're busy livin in a perfect day.
Emphasizing the joy of living in the perfect day
We were sittin in the sand as he grabbed my hand
Sitting in the sand and experiencing a romantic moment
And then leaned in for a kiss
Sharing a kiss with a romantic partner
I couldn't help but think with the stars above it
Feeling the perfection of the moment under the stars
don't get much better than this
Acknowledging the exceptional quality of the experience
It was the perfect day
Reiterating the perfection of the day
What I'd give if I could find a way to stay
Expressing a desire to prolong the ideal moment
Lost in this moment now
Being fully immersed in the current moment
Ain't worried about tomorrow
Not worrying about the future
When you're busy livin, feels like dreamin',
Emphasizing the joy of living, feeling like dreaming
slowly drifting, through this perfect day.
Describing a slow and dreamlike drift through the perfect day
