This Day (Angel of Sadness)

Once this day and never more Some of us dream The remainder of us put together wishes Of the things we only hope to achieve Sometimes we hold our hands out Knowing undoubtly what we may receive One sweet day and nothing more My tribulations in association With this unwritten documentation To go forth as a hero One has to be able to do what other can not Place your eyes upon this image A mirror of what man has forgotten It’s a stairway to heaven Seems I choose to cruise this highway to hell I’ll overcome these obstacles Even if it is my day to fail I’m giving you one day and nothing more We move along with the proper assist Returned values become this robber’s only gift Breakfast is what we miss Having lunch as an old man without your kiss Gave it all up, to have dinner with wife and kids Torn between the usual traces People, places, unseen faces Once more this day and never again
