The Day After You lyrics

I laughed today.

I spoke to myself and said, okay,

wasn't it good? Wasn't it great?

So why am I still crying?

Oh, what a foolish thing to do.

But I can't forget

the day after you.

You walked away.

I told myself to smile and say, 

"What can you do? That's how it goes."

But what's the sense in lying

when deep inside you know it's untrue?

'Cause it feels so bad

the day after you.

But if I could, I'd do it all again.

I'd call and say, "Please be with me."

Then you'd arrive 

and I would come alive with love 

and feelings of...I can't explain...

because of how the story ends.

Since you have gone, I've watched

the nights turn into dawn,

stars in the clouds, faces in crowds.

But endings are beginnings

and memories will never come true.

But for now they'll do,

the day after you.

But endings are beginnings

and memories will never come true.

But for now they'll do,

the day after you.
