Lyrics

Day Like This
you wake up feeling like you had twenty hrs. sleep
you smell the coffee and the bacon
the radio?s saying coffee and bacon
ain?t bad for you, and everybody?s gonna live
an extra twenty yrs. and not have to pay taxes on it
and I say, I?ve been waiting, for a Day Like This

and you walk outside, and the grass has been mowed,
the paper?s been delivered
the obituary?s got nobody you know
and that lottery number you picked
well it didn?t win anyway
but you forgot to buy the ticket
well there?s dollar you saved
and nobody?s going to war, nobody?s on trial
nobody?s selling nothing, all you can do-- is smile

I?ve been waiting for a Day Like This
and every girl is wearing a brand new spring dress

well your mom and dad, well you love ?em so
but tonight they?re out of town,
and there?s a girl you know
you call her up and she says ?yes I can?
now the wheels are turning
you?re the man with the plan
the rest of the day falls into place
your bills are all paid and there?s that
smile on your face
I?ve been waiting, for a Day Like This
and the girl is wearing a brand new spring dress
but then the night comes and everything changes

you?re happy inside but a little bit nervous
and that girl, well she turns out to be the best
and you?re saying stupid stuff
and staring at that dress -------
never forget that dress, on a Day Like This
never forget that dress, on a Day Like This

I?ve been waiting? I?ve been waiting?
