[Verse 1]
Summer mornings,
They were always the best time
Just you and I in the car, off to get the newspaper.
Times were simpler,
When you and I were younger,
Back when you cared more about mum and me.
[Pre-Chorus]
But even though things changed over the years,
Even though it’s easier without you,
I’d give anything…
Anything just for one more,
[Chorus]
One more day with you,
One more conversation with you,
One more chance to ask,
The things that time stole from us.
What was it like when you grew up?
Did you think this was how your life would end up?
Would you do it all differently,
If you knew the memories you left broke us?
[Verse 2]
Digging through,
All the remnants of you,
Was like pouring acid on a papercut.
What would you say?
If you knew she found out this way.
The woman you had on the side.
That you tore apart the one who was supposed to be the love of your life.
[Pre-Chorus]
I know you let us go over the years,
Even though it’s easier without you,
I’d give anything…
Anything just for one more,
[Chorus]
One more day with you,
One more conversation with you,
One more chance to ask,
The things that time stole from us.
What was it like when you grew up?
Did you think this was how your life would end up?
Would you do it all differently,
If you knew the memories you left broke us?
[Bridge]
I just wish I could find some way to understand you.
The one I used to look up to,
In death became a villain instead..
I want to shout ‘what were you thinking?’
When you found love in another bed,
And still told me ‘don’t cheat, break up instead’
And now you’ve become someone I resent.
[Chorus]
One more day with you,
One more conversation with you,
One more chance to ask,
Why you did all that.
Why did you hurt us both?
Why didn’t you let her go?
Why couldn’t you just be a better dad?
Would you do it all differently,
If you knew the memories you left broke us?
[Outro]
It’s been a whole year since you’ve left,
And now that I have caught my breath,
I know I’ll never understand you.
But despite everything,
I’d give anything
For one more day with you.
