  • I had a dream so big and loud
    I jumped so high I touched the clouds
    Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh
    I stretched my hands out to the sky
    We danced with monsters through the night
    Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh

    I'm never gonna look back, whoa
    I'm never gonna give it up, no
    Please don't wake me now (two, three, four)

    This is gonna be the best day of my life
    My li-i-i-i-i-ife
    This is gonna be the best day of my life
    My li-i-i-i-i-ife

    I howled at the moon with friends
    And then the sun came crashing in
    Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh
    But all the possibilities
    No limits, just epiphanies
    Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh

    I'm never gonna look back, whoa
    I'm never gonna give it up, no
    Just don't wake me now

    This is gonna be the best day of my life
    My li-i-i-i-i-ife
    This is gonna be the best day of my life
    My li-i-i-i-i-ife

    I hear it calling outside my window
    I feel it in my soul (soul)
    The stars were burning so bright
    The sun was out 'til midnight
    I say we lose control (control)

    This is gonna be the best day of my life
    My li-i-i-i-i-ife
    This is gonna be the best day of my life
    My li-i-i-i-i-ife
    This is gonna be, this is gonna be, this is gonna be
    The best day of my life
    Everything is looking up, everybody up now
    This is gonna be the best day of my life
    My li-i-i-i-i-ife Writer/s: Aaron Accetta, David Rublin, James Shelley, Matthew Sanchez, Michael Goodman, Shep Goodman, Zachary Barnett
