Any Given Day

On any given day, snow changes to rain

changes back to snow again

Freezing on the roads forcing us to choose a new way

home,

And here we go

On any given day, ten years from now

She will decide

If she was wrong or right to leave behind

One whole life on that winter night

And, call me crazy call me mad

Just being alive is the best thing I've ever had

In the end you know all we really have

Is the ticking of these little hands

And if we're lucky maybe a love that lasts

On any given day, you'll find her slouched

In the back of a matinee

Immersed in someone elses' private pain

Waiting for that familiar light on a stranger's face

On any given day, misplaced keys could make you

seconds late

To the intersection where that truck has run the

red light

Allowing you to stay here for another night
