Lyrics

Day by Day

Day by day

I wake up for you, I do

And I rise to who knows who

Well, if I can say... some other day

Day by day

I reach up to you, I do

And I pretend there's something to it

And if I can say... I've had better days

Da-da-da-da-da-do, oh

Da-da-da-da-da-do, oh

Da-da-da-da-da-do

Day by day

I resort to you, I do

And I wash up after you're through

If I can say... well, that's okay

Da-da-da-da-da-do, oh

Da-da-da-da-da-do, oh

Da-da-da-da-da-do

And you're in my head again

And you're in my bed again

And you're in the mirror again

Hee

And if you don't me, I don't mind you

Da-da-da-da-da-do, oh

Da-da-da-da-da-do, oh

Da-da-da-da-da-do

Day by day

I reflect on you, I do

I reflect on you, I do
