Days and Days Songtext

von Judy Kuhn

Welcome to our house
On Maple Avenue
See how polish and we shine
We rearranged and reallign
Everything is balanced and
And...
Days and days and days
That's how it happened
Days and days and days
Made of lunches and car rides
And shirts and socks
And grades and piano
And no one clocks the day you disappear
Days and days and days
That's how it happens
Days and days and days
Made of posing and bragging
And fits of rage
And boys
My God
Some of them underage
And oh, how did it all happen here?
There was a time
Your father swept me off my feet with words
We read books
Strolled through Munic at night
Drank beer with friends
Discussed the places we would go
And he said I understood
How the world made him ache
But no
But no
That's how it happens
Days made of bargains I made
Because I thought as a wife
Because I thought I was meant to
And now my life is shattered and laid bare
Days and days and days and days
And days and days and days and days!
Welcome to our house
On Maple Avenue
See how polish and we shine
We rearranged and reallign
Everything is balanced and serene
Like chaos never happens
If it's never seen
Don't you come back here
I didn't raise you
Don't give away your days like me
