Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He said
I'm not dead, but don't wake me ever
'Cause I may have to think this through
She says she's changed her mind
And I didn't try to put her right
Though I've every reason to
[PreChorus]
Well, I don't know
She wouldn't say
Exactly when she intends to mince her Light-Fantastic my way
And make my very best day
[Chorus]
Let me tell you the way it will always be (My best day)
He'll see it all, but he won't see me (My best day)
And didn't I give him every sign
That his best days are leaving me behind
[Verse 2]
Later
If it's her, you can say I've gone away
I get nowhere peachy keen
You tell her next week
And maybe find out where they're going
Just so I know where I should be
[PreChorus]
She's got a nerve
And that's okay
But I want to hear when she's finally got something decent to say
Could be my very best day
[Chorus]
Let me tell you the way it will always be (My best day)
He'll see it all, but he won't see me (My best day)
And didn't I give him every sign (My best day)
That his best days are leaving me behind
[Bridge]
What exactly do you want me to say?
No, I don't feel good for you
And you can get that girl out of my face
I don't enjoy her like you do
[Chorus]
And this is the way it will always be (My best day)
He'll see it all, but he won't see me (My best day)
And how do I show him diamond skies
When all he has are best days in his eyes
[Outro]
My best day
My best day
My best day
My best day
My best day
My best day
