Just Another Day

Just another day

He told me yesterday
That he and I must part
I thought I heard him wrong
But I knew it in my heart

I had to let him go
And as I watched him walk away
I could feel my world break apart
All that was left was for me to pray

I would need to pray for guidance 
On how I was going to live
I gave him all I had of me
And he took all I had to give

The pain of losing love
Is not something I recommend
It tears the fabric of the soul
And is very hard to mend

Time is the ultimate healer
But it can move ever so slow
I didn’t want to wish my life away
But the pain just seemed to grow

After a while I felt better
I could feel the pain subside
I hoped against hope it was true
No longer would the pain abide

Life has begun to look good again
And each morning I now can say
The past is finally laid to rest  
And today is just another day.
