One Day Like This

Drinking in the morning sun
Blinking in the morning sun
Shaking off the heavy one
Heavy like a loaded gun

What made me behave that way?
Using words I never say
I can only think it must be love
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

Someone tell me how I feel
It's silly wrong but vivid right
Oh, kiss me like a final meal
Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight

'Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see the light
Yeah, lying with me half awake
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

When my face is chamois-creased
If you think I'll wink, I did
Laugh politely at repeats
Yeah, kiss me when my lips are thin

'Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see you like
Yeah, lying with me half awake
Stumbling over what to say
Well, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

So throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd see me right
Throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd we'll sing it right

Throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd see me right
Throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd we'll sing it right, for life

Holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see you like
Holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see you like

Throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd see me right
Throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd we'll sing it right

Throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd see me right
Throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd we'll sing it right

Throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd see me right
Throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd we'll sing it right

Throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd see me right
So throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd we'll sing it right
