Freshlyground - Feels Like Sunday lyrics

I know I’m always on time

But today it feels like Sunday

Though it could be Monday

They call it Tuesday

I know my schedule’s fine

And I keep appointments in a diary

At night I go to sleep with the moon

Oh I’m so unsatisfied today

I’m keeping up with the daily news

And I’m suffering in silence

With kids in war torn society

How do they process violence?

I saw a leaf fall softly

To the soft brown earth

And maybe if I could strive…

I always thought I knew myself

But why do I doubt my majesty?

Why do I drown in vanity?

And yield to this insanity

I met a man in solitary

Who spent his life in silence

As he grew up quietly

He found love in his confinement

His father was a humble man

Who kept pennies in a bottle

When his father died one day

He looked but couldn’t find them

I saw a leaf fall softly

To the soft brown earth

And maybe if I could strive…

I saw a leaf fall softly

To the soft brown earth

And maybe if I could strive…

To live
