One More Day

Doesn't everything seem the same
When you're caught looking at it through a haze
Friends of mine saying the same old things
Nothing of any substance
Still searching for some golden path
Finding roadblocks and barriers
And the same kind of rules don't apply anymore
Especially on a Monday

I met a man he had a head full of ghosts
Living in a house full of shadows
He seemed dead to the world yet still searching for life
Just from another angle
And he prayed every night for one of God's little miracles
Some kind of release from this tragic world
Was it drink in a bar? a woman? or a car?
The answer remains well hidden

So don't you deny me baby
All of the triumphs of our past
You're the only thing helping me make it today
Promise me love can last

I stopped along the side of the road
And I must've cried for 5 minutes or more
No real reason just the weight of my cross
That I carry in this infinite sadness
The world can be desperate place
And little kids can be the meanest people
Life can bring the deepest pain
When the ones you love become strangers

So don't you deny me baby
All of the triumphs of my past
Memories are all that's helping me make it today
Promise me love can last
Promise me our love can last...just one more day
