Standing In The Shadow
This look will be my last
Oh what a sound it made
As the flame erased the past
And I’ll be singing melodies in the rain
Breathing steady, slowly gaining speed
And I’ll see the beauty, I’ve missed in everything
As I watch the world go by on this night
Took your letters out as well
And read them one last time
These words that you once said
Are now a fire in my eyes?
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
