Gerry Rafferty - Days Gone Down Lyrics
You still got that light in your eye
And our day is comin' by and by
I'm travellin' this long road to be with you
We still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.
We didn't have to speak cause the words said everything
Yes you walked right into my life, and we were on our way, yeah
So long ago, but it feels like yesterday.
And I just wanna tell you...
You still got that light in your eye (yes you do)
And our day is comin' by and by
I'm travellin' this long road to be with you
We still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.
Now some of my best memories are days I spent with you, yeah
Each time we hit the road it was always somethin' new
Spaced out rather drunk
And singin' in the sun, yeah yeah
One more bottle dead and a new day just begun.
I just wanna tell you...
You still got that light in your eye
And our day is comin' by and by
I'm travellin' this long road to be with you
We still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.
Shinin' light, shinin' bright on the days gone down
Shinin' light, shinin' bright on the days gone down
Shinin' light, shinin' bright on the days gone down
We won't forget the days gone down, they're written in our hearts, yeah yeah
And we're as much in tune as we were right at the start
It all seems so much harder now, it seemed so easy then, yeah yeah
Well someday just for fun we might do it all again.
I just wanna tell you...
You still got that light in your eye (yes you do)
And our day is comin' by and by
I'm travellin' this long road to be with you
We still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.
Yeah yeah still got that light in your eye
And our day is comin' by and by
I'm travellin', travellin' (yeah yeah)
We still gotta long way, we still gotta long way to go.

Gerry Rafferty Days Gone Down Comments
Mournful but so true---could listen to this all night .
what a joy it must to have been to be in that studio whatching in my view the best singer songwriter ever r i p gerry you are my hero xxx
les collins
Such a unique voice and so recognisable ;)
One of his most under rated songs. All about musicianship for him and the rest of those involved. Just loving watching this stuff after so long. A quiet sign of genius, pure and simple!
Gerry Rafferty is one of the best singer/songwriters ever. And he had amazing session musicians. I am so grateful for him and his music. RIP Gerry ❤
The light in our heart shows in our eyes where there is light there is life worth living December 26 2019
She's just sixteen yrs...if I could fly
What an honor to watch, thank you Jerry and You Tube!!!! Anyone who's into music, wow,.....this is our place!!!!
If was around now and had the backing that people like Ed Sheerin has, he'd be a superstar
He IS a superstar to the educated....
Musically this is top notch. I cant even pinpoint what it sounds like... Super original track. Maybe some elements of Jackson Browne, Paul McC, and Hall & Oates in there somewhere.
Give it a thumbs up if you are still listening and loving this in 2019!
Lisa Cunningham i’m re-discovering Gerry Rafferty.
By all means~!!!
He must have listened to Alive of the Bee Gees. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReVM6N0akl8
What if?
Our time is today. Keep the light going in good times,good music and laughter. Hope someone agrees November 2019
A legend artist and I am English, his music will stand the test of time, dad had all his songs when I was little, I can still remember Baker Street and this tune like it was yesterday.
This song just reminded me of my old cat Matt, an adorable friendly ginger thing. He got run over on the avenue and I watched the light in his eyes glaze over - so unfortunate, I never blamed the driver, sad though, even people who aren't fond of cats thought that little guy was cool. Rest In Peace buddy. He really was a credit to the feline race.
...magic music
One of his best. Loved listening to him during the early 1980's. #Sad
We played this at our wedding. My husband picked one song and this was it 💓💓💓
What a wonderful gentleman.
that crazy vocal mix gives me tingles and almost takes my breath away.
Obsessed ! My favoriTe!
What a unique voice he had... RIP Gerry one of my favourite singers back in the day & still sounds great
Just about all jerrys songs mean so much to me
I wish Gerry Rafferty were still around... I'm only 21. Would've loved to of seen him live....
So, so, so good. Neighbors don't know what the hell is going on. Rocking this in 2019. So, so, so LOUD. Lol.
Sheer class.
Who has the video/dvd ?
Fabulous..
Nothing is forever...😥 well maybe, heaven 😇
R I P Gerry
man this cat was right up there with the best of them..
So missed Gerry xx
My favourite 'happy song'. This is what joy and respect is all about.
This song is better than aspirin! After two listens, my stress headache is gone!
I wonder if the lyrics of this appetizing slab of late 1970's AOR are about anyone in particular, like maybe one of Gerry's erstwhile musical collaborators?
I've listened to this Beautiful song over and over again and I never get tired of it
I had an 8 track and I loved it. I miss what he could have done.
summer time Chicago in the 70s....best of times.
He could sing the alphabet, and it would sound great. I love his voice ♥
He’s got such an amazing doubled voice. Man it’s like flawless ! Rest in power my man. Digging into your music finally and it’s amazing.❤️
One of those great songs by one the all time greats
Many thanks for posting
He hated the music industry. He said he only wrote songs for his daughter.He could have been huge if he wanted with his talent.
And that's why I love Gerry Rafferty
Genious, wonderful records.
Who can sing like a bird... like Gerry Rafferty today 2019?. R.I.P Gerry Rafferty
Odd how so very positive and hopeful the lyrics are when he had such a troubled and tormented life. Thank you, Gerry. Such a wonderful career .... this being one of the best tracks ever.
Sad to say I didn't appreciate this guy until now..and I was a teen in his heyday of music writing and singing. I liked his songs then but didn't appreciate him or them. What a shame to lose him to alcohol.
He was a fantastic talent
I am so unhappy that I didn't see him in concert
Been digging so many of Gerry's tunes . Amazing dude !
Still giving folks what they need !
The man was a genious.
man this bring tears of joy to my eyes!
Top shelf music.
RIP Norman McQueen I will ALWAYS LOVE YOU, Anna x
Timeless.
Gerry Rafferty .is laid back kind of a band,relaxing music soundtrack.😎🤓☝️🦹♀️
Brings me back memories of being 13, how old I was when this came out...I was vacationing with my family at Myrtle beach SC when this came out....loved it as soon as I heard it....miss you, Jerry.
We're so lucky. We still got a long way to go.
nice be 600k
What if?
Nothing fancy in the video, just plain great music!
Stealing Time................
Haven’t heard this song in over 30 years! Gotta go get some of his music and start listening again!
What a song!
what a song by Gerry.......loving his songs since 83...lucky to be in his era...
I used to put my hands under my daughters arms(when she was a baby), and we would dance to this song
Watching and listening to this video gives me chills. Such a great talent. I would have loved to play backup with him. A thrill not to be forgotten. Rest in piece Gerry.
Genius.
Genius.
Incredible song ,musicianship ,backing vocals etc
Gerry Rafferty Forever!
Remembering my late Wife . Miss her so!
Put this one in the time capsule !
My favorite is The Ark.😇
i dig,,,,,
Don't ever forget the time spent with your favorites . Best Of all alive ones .We still got a long way to go? How very optimistic and appreciative. Better than the negative craps music and lyrics they produce today. The only half decent song was written by someone else. And I'm pretty sure they are rolling over in their graves. With the computer enhancement . C'mon. Sing. You might actually have talent.
You still have the light in your eyes, Gerry you do
I must say my favourites with Gerry are "The Royal mile" and "Right down the line", not Baker street, even if I do like that one too. :)
This music will live forever..what a beautiful gift he left us..thank you!! 😙🤗
I miss he's music so much Beautiful Voice 👌♥️
Night owl vinyl sent me here.
A real hit maker Gerry Rafferty.....
Pure melodies
His best track by far
Er hat so wunderschöne, melodische Musik, gemacht und die Stimme so voll Gefühl 👍😚🎵🎼🎶🎤🎸🎧 R.I.P Garry Rafferty 🍃🕊🌹🍃
Decent song but too repetitive and I didn't hear any key change in the bridge section which is not a good thing. You can skip around in the song and it sounds like it is in the same key the entire song.
I absolutely love Gerry Rafferty, always on my mind ♡♥♡
The album 'Night Owl' has this tune and many many other songs which are just as good and arguably even better.
Pound for pound the best pitch perfect melodic male vocalist of all time!
Brilliant, effortless singing! RIP
One the great voices in rock !
The organ underneath this track put a surety and piety to this tune that is indescribable...total chill bump stuff...and it all fits Rafferty's sincere, plaintiff voice just perfectly...
It doesn't sound like a performance, it is like a plea with his friends at his side.
Where does the strange warmth of this one, come from?
Love this song , only discovered it a few days ago & keep playing it over & over 🎤🎸🎶🎹🎷🎺🎵
Love Betsy Cook on organ.
(Mums side of the families are Scottish Harrs an Horns)!!!
du är helt underbar!
Next to Elvis, My all time favorite songwriter, singer talent. Also, Roy Orbison. My top three.
WHAT A FANTASTIC SONG FROM A BRILLIANT SONGWRITER SO SO SAD HE IS PASSED ON RIP THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES GERRY 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
The Best. Style of his very own. Perfectionist for sure, but he wasn't handing out junk music. He made sure it was his special incredible way. My favorite.
