Just One Day

(Claude S.)

Walking in the morning winds
I stare up at the clouds,
Slowly bring myself to rest
Near a peaceful plain.

Hoping and waiting for some sign
Anything will do...
I just wander in my soul,
In the search for you.

You would say,
";Please, please just go away,
And let your mind forget
about this dreary day.";

Just one day in the life of a fool
Just one day in the life of a fool...

The afternoon will pass my by
As I reach the wall,
That stretches out across the land
That I knew so well.

And in a garden there
All the flowers bloom.
Reminders of a growing rose
Always full of thorns...

You would say,
";Please, please don't cry this way";
Slowly turn,
As the moon shows her face.

Just one day in the life of a fool
Just one day in the life of a fool
In the life of a fool
In the life of a fool...

Darkness drapes itself on me,
As I'm heading home.
Carrying roses in my hands,
I'm thinking of you.

How you smiled
And kissed my face.
Thought I heard you,
I thought I heard you say:

Just one day in the life of a fool
Just one day in the life of a fool
Just one day in the life of a fool
Just one day in the life of a fool

Just one day
Just one day in the life of a fool

Just one day
In the life of a fool

(Just one day)
