ONE GOOD DAY
(Album: One Good Day 2006)

When life is tearing me apart
And I can’t stand the strain
Of ringing phones and pager tones
And deadlines I can’t change
I close my eyes, and let your face
Fill up my memory
And wish that I could wake up
To a new reality

Give me one good day
When things are going right
And I can find some peace of mind
To get me through the night
And you are lying close to me
As the twilight slips away
That would be enough for me
One good day

You told me I could reach the stars
And then you watched me shine
I made the grades and made the rounds
But missed the vital signs
Now scalpel blades and x-rays
Could never let me see
How I came to be this man
Who really isn’t me

Success is just a hollow rush
That lingers in your veins
But pride can't start an empty heart
And I'd give it all away for

One good day
When things are going right
And I can find some peace of mind
To get me through the night
And you are lying close to me
As the twilight slips away
That would be enough for me
One good day

A second chance, another dance
One good day
