Day One

By tomorrow I bet I can crawl out of bed
And I might even open the shades
Then the weekend will fly, some friends will drop by
And tell me I'll be okay
By Tuesday the hurt won't keep me from working
I'll hide it from everyone
Sounds easy to do if I could 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 seventeen, I won't need a drink to help me close my eyes
On day twenty-eight, 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 forty-five, I wont have to drive by your house on my way home
By day ninety-two, 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 when waking up on your side of the bed
Won't feel so strange
Right now it seems crazy it won't even faze 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
