Any Other Day

By Bruce Clifford

If you could see me
The way I look at the world
The way I count the stars
How things could be

If you could find a way
To see things in another light
Tomorrow could be bright
It's like any other day

Any other day I would listen
Any other day I would call
Any other day this would matter
Any other day I would take the fall

If you could hear me out
I don't want to scream and shout
It doesn't matter
If I know I told you so

You don't have to go

You don't have to go

But,

Any other day I would listen
Any other day I would call
Any other day this would matter
Any other day I would take the fall

Any other day I would bring promise
Any other day I would compromise
Any other day I would notice
Any other day I would bring you a surprise

If you could see me
The way I can see you
