This Is the Day Songtext
von Manic Street Preachers

You didn′t wake up this morning 'cause you didn′t go to bed
You were watching the whites of your eyes turn red
The calendar on your wall is ticking the days off

You've been reading some old letters
You smile and you think how much you've changed
And all the money in the world
Couldn′t bring back those days

You pull back the curtains
And the sun burns into your eyes
You watch a plane flying
Across a clear blue sky

This is the day, your life will surely change
This is the day when things fall into place


You could′ve done anything if you'd wanted
And all your friends and family think that you′re lucky
But the side of you they'll never see
Is when you′re left alone with the memories
That hold your life together, together like glue

You pull back the curtains
And the sun burns into your eyes
You watch a plane flying
Across a clear blue sky

This is the day, your life will surely change
This is the day when things fall into place
This is the day, your life will surely change
This is the day when things fall into place

This is the day
This is the day
