By tomorrow I bet I can crawl out of bed
and I might even open the shades
and the weekend will fly
and some friends will drop by
and tell me I'll be ok
By tuesday the hurt
won't keep me from work
and I'll hide it from everyone
Sounds easy to do
if I just get through day one
In a week or so
all the neighbors will know
when they dont see your car outside
By day 17 I won't need a drink
to help me close my eyes
by day 28 I'll go out on a date
and she'll think I'm having fun
Sounds easy to do
if i just get through day one
can't skip the pain
can't stop my mind
so I'll just take
one at a time
It might even be a year
maybe three
before the damage comes undone
but I'll get over you
if I just get through day one
by day 45 I won't have to drive
by your house on my way home
by day 92 if I run into you
it won't kill me if your not alone
By the end of September
I'll barely remember
how hard this first night was
when it was all I could do
to try to get through day one
can't skip the pain
can't stop my mind
so I'll just take
one at a time
It might even be more
than a year
maybe four
before the damage comes undone
but I'll get over you
if I just get through day one
There comes a time
when the sting of goodbye
won't be hanging in every room
could be fall
could be summer
don't know the number
but it can't come too soon
I can't skip the pain
I can't stop my mind
so I'll just take
one at a time
It might even be more
than a year
maybe four
before the damage comes undone
but I'll get over you
if I can just get through day one
Well I'll sit and listen
and call it a blessin'
when that day finally comes
You'll just be someone I knew
if I can get through day 1
