By tomorrow I bet I can crawl out of bed
And I might even open the shades
Then the weekend'll fly, some friends will drop by
And tell me I'll be okay
By Tuesday, the hurt won't keep me from work
And I'll hide it from everyone
Sounds easy to do if I just get through day one
In a week or so, all the neighbors'll know
When they don't see your car outside
By day 17, I won't need a drink
To help me close my eyes
On day 28, I'll go on a date
And he'll think I'm having fun
Sounds easy to do if I just get through day one
I know I'll be better off alone
Give it time, broken hearts have a mind of their own
I wish I knew a way to skip over the pain, but I don't
There's no way to say how long it'll take
'Til the damage comes undone
All I can do is try to get through day one
By day 45, I won't have to drive
By your house on my way home
By day 92, if I run into you
It won't kill me if you're not alone
By fall or by winter, I'll barely remember
How hard this first night was
When all I could do
Is try to get through day one
I know I'll be better off alone
Give it time, broken hearts have a mind of their own
I wish I knew a way to skip over the pain but I don't
There'll come a time, waking up on your side
Of the bed won't feel so strange
Right now it seems crazy, it won't even phase me
When someone says your name
It might take a while, but I might even smile
When that day finally comes
You'll just be someone I knew, if I just get through day one
Yeah, I'll get over you if I just get through day one
