-not just a day-

I LOVE the fact that days have passed
maybe just not mine
I LOVE the fact it's another
just not mine
my Mother hopes and dreams still
it's no other
day to me
still
i hope and dream
I laugh and scream
I jump when you say
but it's a different day
a great day
the only one i know
i'm mesmerized
terroroized by just one day
it's mine today
my self prays
I sing
I SING
because it was my day
I wanted to play the bar
because I prayed
Because I played
the only other that could
she laughed and laid
smashed and stayed
because it was my day
he chanced a dance
just for her
a romance and dance
just for her
because my day
yes my day
because we were to be
she made me, she slaved through me
and before me
she had a way, no other way
but she had me
had her way
before me
because we know that day
of me
because me
she had a tray
one shining glance
before disarray
she still
had me
there is no better
no chance of let her
she still had me
I am because she did
have a day
what a day
a wonderous day that I barely know
isn't a day still
she almost had you at go
we almost missed the show
the blow, the show
you know
I LOVE the fact that days have passed
and what MORE could
you ask
as you read
plead
beg for more
just one more pray
mebbe a day
just one more
shining glance
and oh, the romance
my slipped up trance
just a lil' hope
hope
still
and so much because of me
not lightly
not even a chance
if we cannot dance
before I ruined your day
just one other way
eyes so blue
they make you cry
i still do
for cries so true
and to see them
is not just another day
