I think about the day it will end The day I’ll wake up in the morning And calling you won’t be the first thing on my mind The day I’ll listen to some beloved melody And your face So well known that it could have been my own Won’t be the dominating presence that I can’t ever leave behind The day when I’ll dream of going to Venice And you won’t be in the gondola holding my hand The day I eat a Popsicle And you won’t be there to see the stick hanging out The day someone gives me a rose And I won’t throw it back at them The day I cry my heartstrings dry And I won’t tell you The day that I’ll be able to listen to love songs again The day I will be able to look at humanity And feel like it deserves to exist

The Day
I think about the day it will end The day I’ll wake up in the morning And calling you won’t be the first thing on my mind The day I’ll listen to some beloved melody And your face So well known that it could have been my own Won’t be the dominating presence that I can’t ever leave behind The day when I’ll dream of going to Venice And you won’t be in the gondola holding my hand The day I eat a Popsicle And you won’t be there to see the stick hanging out The day someone gives me a rose And I won’t throw it back at them The day I cry my heartstrings dry And I won’t tell you The day that I’ll be able to listen to love songs again The day I will be able to look at humanity And feel like it deserves to exist
