lyrics

I look away from the sun for a sec
I took it for granted now it sets
the winter's come and I'm not ready yet
Naked here and cold and wet

I had one more thought
one more thing I had to ask
did you know that it was your very last day?
One more thought, I had to ask you
did you enjoy your stay?

no one would talk when the cancer came
hot potato telephone just passed the blame
Was it all a waste? We didn't get to far
just another tragic fallen star

Life cut short the sorrow grown
the roots are strong but the soil unknown
Will I waver? Gale bears down
will I favor a weak way out?

One more day
one more word I had to say
Could i've known not to hesitate?
One more word i had to say to you
Why did I have to wait?
why did i hesitate
wasn't just another thing
they talk about on Ricki Lake
it was something important i had to say
