One More Day
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Spent the last years
In denial of my grief
Because you hated me
Anyone could see
I'll always wonder
What I meant to you
And why you hated me
What I did to you
I can't get anywhere
Pretending that I don't care
Lying to everyone I see
When the only thing I needed was
One more day like yesterday
I'd pick you up, you'd put me down
Wish you were still around
For one more day like yesterday
With you
And in the end
We didn't have a thing to say
Still those games to play
Then you passed away
I'll always wonder
Why you had to leave
Why you hated me
Then laid the blame on me
Cold antiseptic stares
The smell of the sickroom air
Yeah, I let you go down there
The only child
Who never cared about
One more day like yesterday
I'd pick you up, You'd put me down
Wish you were still around
For one more day like yesterday
With you
I'll always wonder
If I could have meant more to you
I'll always wonder
If I could have done more for you
How could I just turn my back
How could I just walk away
How could I just close my eyes
And watch you die
We never got along
We never got a chance
To sing our song of love
I loved my daddy boy
Did you love your boy?
Oh, you feel so warm to me now
But it's cold in this room
Tomorrow they'll put you
In the ground
Then there's nothing I can
ever do to have
One more day like yesterday
I'd pick you up, you'd put me down
Wish you were still around
For one more day like yesterday
With you
