Worst Day of Your Life

Appreciate

Today I broke a promise to myself
And took a book down from the shelf
Turned the page to find that
Picture you deplore

You say your eyes were blinded by the glare
And what’s the deal with all your hair
But that’s the flair and there’s that feeling that you’re bored
And that’s what I adore

I don’t wanna to live without
The silly things that put me out
No, I don’t wanna live in doubt
Cause I appreciate you now
I appreciate you now
I appreciate you now
Now that you’re gone

Today I wrote a note to set things straight
And mailed it off but three weeks late
I’ve never felt so great
I’ve never felt so smart

But then you called me up and let me down
You words were clear your voice was proud
That clown you found was crowned
The boy prince of your heart
After three short weeks apart

I don’t wanna to live without
The silly things that put me out
No, I don’t wanna live in doubt
Cause I appreciate you now
I appreciate you now
I appreciate you now
Now that you’re gone

Who won this war
And who’s crawling on their knees
Who’s twisting in the wind
And who enjoys the breeze

I don’t wanna to live without
The silly things that put me out
No, I don’t wanna live in doubt
Cause I appreciate you now
I appreciate you now
I appreciate you now
Now that you’re gone
