The Gift of Day

Today I was given
The gift of day
But spent it in
The troubles of yesterday

Gone away
Gone away
Oh my day

Today I awoke to
The sound of my heart
It howled
And it begged
To be let from the dark

I wish I was a sailor
And could sail the high seas
Surrender to the waves
That crash upon me

Gone away
Gone away
All my days

Today I was given
The gift of day
I hung a noose around
Tomorrows pain

A gift I did not ask
Nor deserve
For my wrongs
A gift that was spent
In sorrow's song

Gone away
Gone away
The gift of day
