A Day to Be Alone Songtext
von One Less Reason

She said, "I wonder when it′ll be my day
'Cause I′m not too far from breaking down
All I've got are screams inside
But somehow they come out in a smile
And I'm wondering if I′ll always feel this way, this way"

Tell me about those nights you stayed awake
Tell me about those days you hated me
Tell me how you′d rather die alone
Than being stuck here with me

And maybe you've fallen down
And maybe you just took the long way home
But, baby, you could never love you like me
And one day this will fade away
In the mirror you′ll see your smiling face
And standing next to you will always be me, yeah, me


One day you're gonna see things my way
You gave me so much room that I can′t breathe
When all I've got are pictures to view
There was nothing before and I started with you
For some reason it′s supposed to be that way, that way

Tell me about those nights you stayed awake
Tell me about those days you hated me
Tell me how you'd rather die alone
Than being stuck here with me

And maybe you've fallen down
And maybe you just took the long way home
But, baby, you could never love you like me
And one day this will fade away
In the mirror you′ll see your smiling face
And standing next to you will always be me, yeah, me

If I could shrink it down and put it in your hands
We made it hurt so much, I can′t forget the past
Just tell me what to say, show me what to do
Then I can forgive me and I would forgive you


Maybe you've fallen down
And maybe you just took the long way home
But, baby, you will never love you like me
And one day this will fade away
In the mirror you′ll see your smiling face
And standing next to you will always be me
You know it'll always be me, and I will wait
Always be me, ′til I see you're smiling
