What A Day
Copyright 2005: Better With Age

I woke up this morning, put the coffee on
The sugar was gone
I tossed and turned the night before, tried counting sheep
But I couldn't sleep
Then I broke the yoke and burnt the toast
I tried to clean my dirty clothes
Once again my day has fell apart
When an old friend that I'd known for years
Asked me how I'd been without you here

What a day to realize you're gone
Far away, too gone for way too long
I never meant to do you wrong
What a day to realize I can't move on

I picked myself up just enough to cut the grass
And ran out of gas
I cursed the lord and kicked the door of my old car
When it wouldn't start
When I tried to feed the dog his food I realized you took him too
Left me with empty drawers and walls with holes
The only things you left behind
Were the memories of the days when you were mine

Then just for laughs I called your Dad
And talked about the times we had
And just how bad it hurt to let you go
I hit my knees when I hung up the phone
And prayed to God for you to come back home

What a day to fall apart
Lord, I wonder where you are
What a day to realize I can't move on
