I Want to Go Back to That Day

I Want to Go Back to That Day

1. I Want to Go Back to That Day

I Want to Go Back to That Day

(verse 1)

it's unlike myself to give up so easily

I don't procrastinate, but even I can't appreciate

what my great God's graciously given me

the orchids haven't been watered in weeks

and that photograph crashed off of the beige wall

(chorus)

my youth is fleeing like raindrops on a windshield

my thoughts are sinking into the salty sea that is you

and all I know is my heart will never be in control

I want to go back to that day where I felt whole

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

my cashmere sweater that was once my favorite

has a maroon wine stain that I can't get out

the light that used to shine through my in-tact window

the glacier colored curtains has covered them well and through

(chorus)

my youth is fleeing like raindrops on a windshield

my thoughts are sinking into the salty sea that is you

if I had a spoonful of happiness and bliss

you'd be right here and I wouldn't have to miss

truly those were the days

and I knew they wouldn't stay

but I clung on with all my strength

and I went to cautious lengths

if I had a little rainbow and a nice dress

perhaps I wouldn't become a mess

in every possible way

I want to go back to my home on that day

(end chorus)
