The Day Before the Day

Speeches won't be made today clocks will carry on

Flowers won't be left in parks work will still be done

People won't be dressed in black babies will be born

No flags will fly

The sun will rise but we will know that you are gone

You who loved to love

And believed we can never give enough

It wakes me every single night thinking through the day

Did you stop at any time have doubts at any stage

Or were you calm or were you numb or happy just to get it done

I've lived my life without regret until today

You who loved to love

And believed we can never give enough

I didn't get to say goodbye the day before the day

Was trying to get to work on time that's why I turned away

And missed the most important thing you ever tried to say

I've lived my life without regret until today

And you who love to love

And believed we can never give enough

And you who hoped that underneath

We all felt the same

That was until the day before the day the day before the day

The day before the day oh the day before the day

The day before the day oh the day before the day

Oh the day before the day oh the day before the day
