Counting Crows - Possibility Days Lyrics
(Verse)There was a call at 3 a.m. at JFKGuess you stayed cuz you wanted to stayAnd we went from zero everything all in a dayAnd then Kennedy took you awayI thought of a short robe that was keeping you warmAnd the moments that make up your life till you wake upYou sit on a swing in the dark with a girlShe tells you she wanted to kiss you(Chorus)And you knowThe worst part of a good dayIs hearing yourself say goodbyeTo one more possibility day, goes on, and on(Verse 2)I go west but your weather has changedBut you're scared, and mistaken for strangeYou want me to leave then you start to believeI should stay, I gotta get out of LAIt seems that the short days are overCause you don't just don't sleep in the daylightSo I don't sit up nightsI lay on my back on top of the hillAnd your body is breaking the sky cuz you're shakin'(Chorus)And you knowThe worst part of a good dayIs hearing yourself say goodbyeTo one more possibility day, yeah, it's gone(Verse 3)We were waiting for winter this year but you came and it never appearedMe and you, we know too many reasons for peopleAnd season that pass like they weren't even hereNow living in smiles is better you sayWe carry the burdens of all of our daysSo scared that you'll leave, you're scarred that I'll stayIt's an impossibility day, we only saw half of the balletI said good night, goodbye, seems like a good thingSo you know it's a good lieYou can run outta choices and still hearA voice in your head when you're lying in bedAnd it says that the best part of a bad day is knowing it's okeyThe color of everything changes the sky rearranges it's shadeAnd the smile doesn't fade into the phone call and one bad decision we've made(Chorus)And the worst part of a good dayIs the one thing you don't sayAnd you don't know how but youWish there was some way so(Verse 4)And you pull down the shades and you shut out the lightBecause somehow you mixed up, goodbye and good nightAnd you one thing you won't say is everyoneKnows possibility days are impossibleIt just feels wrong, so wrong, still you're gone, long gone
