This Is The 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.
Well, you didn't wake up this morning 'cause you didn't go to bed
You were watching the whites of your eyes turn red
The calendar on your wall
Is ticking the days off
You've been reading some old letters
You smile and think how much you've changed
All the money in the world
Couldn't buy back those days
You pull back the curtains
And the sun burns into your eyes
You watch a plane flying
Across the clear blue sky
This is the day
Your life will surely change
This is the day
When things fall into place
You could've done anything
If you'd wanted
And all your friends and family
Think that your lucky
But the side of you they'll never see
Is when you're left alone with the memories?
That hold your life
Together like glue
You pull back the curtains
And the sun burns into your eyes
You watch a plane flying
Across the clear blue sky
This is the day
Your life will surely change
This is the day
When things fall into place
This is the day (this is the day)
Your life will surely change
