I must have left my house at eight because i always do my train,
I`m certain left the station just when it was due
I must have read the morningpaper, going into town and having gotten through the editorial no doubt
I must have frowned
I must have made my desk around a quarter after nine
With letters to be read and heaps of paper waiting to be signed
I must have gone to lunch at half past twelve or so the usual place, the usual
Bunch and still on top of this i`m pretty sure
It must have rained the day before you came
I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two
And at the time i never even noticed i was blue
I must have kept on dragging
Through the business of the day and without really knowing anything i hid
A part of me away at five i must have left there`s no exception to the rule
A matter of routine i`ve done it ever since
I finished school the train back home again undoubtedly
I must have read the evening paper then
Oh yes, i`m sure my life was well within it`s usual frame the day before you came
I must have opened my front door at eight o`clock or so
And stopped along the way to buy some chinese food to go
I`m sure i had my dinner watching something on tv there`s not,
I think, a single episode of dallas that i didn`t see
I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten
I need a lot of sleep and so i like to be in bed by then
I must have read a while the latest one by marilyn french or something in that style
It`s funny but i had no sense of living without aim
The day before you came
And turning out the light
I must have yawned and cuddled up to yet another night
And rattling on the roof i must have heard the sound of rain
The day before you came Send " The Day Before You Came" Ringtone to your Cell
