Song of the Day — Stars, Calendar Girl

January 5th, 2009

If I am lost for a day
try and find me
But if I don’t come back
then I won’t look behind me

All of the things that I thought were so easy
just got harder and harder each day

December is the darkest and June is the light
but this empty bedroom won’t make anything right

While out on the landing a friend I forgot to send home
Who waits up for me all through the night

Calendar girl, who’s in love with the world stay alive

I dreamed I was dying; as I so often do
And when I awoke I was sure it was true
I ran to the window; threw my head to the sky and said
whoever is up there, please don’t let me die

But I can’t live forever, I can’t always be
One day I’ll be sand on a beach by the sea
The pages keep turning, I’ll mark off each day with a cross
And I’ll laugh about all that we’ve lost

Calendar girl who is lost to the world, stay alive

January, February, March, April, May
I’m alive
June, July, August, September, October
I’m alive
November, December,
Yeah all through the winter, I’m alive, I’m alive
