It Was Such A Good Day Lyrics - Perry Como

I used to think I could stop the earth, 

And hold time in my hand . . . 

But I watched as it raced on by me, 

Headin' for tomorrow . . . 

And I haven't the power to say, 

We can save today . . . 

For a little while longer, 

Just one tomorrow, 

Can I save today? 

It was such a good day! 

I wanna remember, 

All of the good times, 

At the end of the day, 

To remember the good times . . . 

The look at the morning, 

The children at play, 

Oh! Can I save today? 

It was such a good day! 

When this day is over, 

And the sun leaves the sky, 

Let me see all the memories, 

While they're clear in my eye . . . 

At the end of the day, 

Let me reach out an' touch, 

All the faces of places an' people, 

That I love so much! 

Especially the people, 

That I love so much! 

Especially the people, 

That I love so much!
