Day One

By tomorrow I bet I can crawl out of bed
And I might even open the shades
And the weekend will fly
And friends will drop by
And tell me I'll be ok
By Tuesday the hurt won't keep me from work
And I'll hide it from everyone
Sounds easy to do
If I just get through day one

In a week or so
The neighbors will know
When they don't see your car outside
By day 17 I won't need a drink to help me close my eyes
By day 28 I'll go out on a date
And she'll think I'm having fun
Sounds easy to do
If I just get through day one

Chorus

I can't skip the pain
I can't stop my mind
So I'll take
One at a time
It might be even be
A year maybe three before the damage comes undone
But I'll get over you
If I just get through day one

By day 45 I won't have to drive by your house on my way home
By day 92 if I run into you it won't kill me if you're not alone
By the end of September I'll barely remember
How hard this first night was
When it was all I could do to try to get through day one

Chorus

There come a time
When the sting of goodbye
Won't be hanging in every room
Could be Fall could be Summer
Don't know the number
But it can't come to soon

Chorus

And I'll see the lesson
Call it a blessing
When that day finally comes
You'll just be someone I knew
If I can just get through day one
