That Was The Day

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 a 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 you're 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 a 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

Your life will surely change
