This Is The Day Lyrics - Singles - The The

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
