The Day Before You Lyrics

Song Lyrics  The Day Before You Came lyrics Must have left my house at eight, because I always do My train, I m certain, left the station just when it was due I must have read the morning paper going into town And having gotten through the editorial, no doubt I must have frowned I must have made my desk around a quarter after nine With letters to be read, and heaps of papers waiting to be signed I must have gone to lunch at half past twelve or so The usual place, the usual bunch And still on top of this I m pretty sure it must have rained The day before you came I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two And at the time I never even noticed I was blue I must have kept on dragging through the business of the day Without really knowing anything, I hid a part of me away At five I must have left, there s no exception to the rule A matter of routine, I ve done it ever since I finished school The train back home again Undoubtedly I must have read the evening paper then Oh yes, I m sure my life was well within it s usual frame The day before you came Must have opened my front door at eight o clock or so And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to go I m sure I had my dinner watching something on TV There s not, I think, a single episode of Dallas that I didn t see I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten I need a lot of sleep, and so I like to be in bed by then I must have read a while The latest one by Marilyn French or something in that style It s funny, but I had no sense of living without aim The day before you came And turning out the light I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet another night And rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain The day before you came Song Lyrics
