Oh, the day had a half-life of a million years so I buried it in the ground
Right between the mountains and watched as it sank down
You were saying something 'bout something on the radio
Or was it that you had to go?
Oh, I thought it was the radio
You said love was a question, the answer was everything
Did I know what you mean?
I think you said everything
Thought it was the radio
Guess it was you had to go
Well, the day turned over in its grave and made an awful sound
It rolled on through the valley and shook the earth around
You were saying something 'bout something like a freight train
Could've been the evening rain
Oh, I thought it was a freight train
You said love was a question, the answer was everything
Did I know what you mean?
I think you said everything
Thought it was a freight train
Guess it was the evening rain
Oh, the day rose up like it had before and I rolled the stone away
And pushed it up the mountain and thought I heard you say
Something 'bout how you have to let some things go
Could've been the radio
Oh, I thought it was a freight train
Guess it was just everything
