What's the number of this day Please check, approve and file away From now on everything will change I don't know how but it will change And if our days remain the same That's just because they're made that way (they were made that way) It's nearly right but it isn't quite Why don't we take a step aside Up the stairs we had to crawl Now we're up against the wall That I wouldn't go for things like that If I had to do it alone Why don't we step out for a while (if we go we go in style) It's just one step into the light Up the stairs Now we've been through all this trouble There's a chance our luck will double So be sure you don't throw that away Our days, we're only passing trough We know of nothing else to do (what to do with days) You wouldn't want to stay that way Until the very very last day So it's up to us to cut the ties (it's up to us to break the ice) To open up our sleepy eyes There's no need for us to crawl Walk on ceilings, dance on wall We'll no longer touch the floor Lose our grip and up we fall And I'm not just whistling dixie We could start all over next week And our days will never be the same What's the number of this day Please check, approve and file away
