It Was a Great Day

[Verse 1]:
When I woke up this morning the sun was in my face
And on my clock radio they played Amazing Grace
I stumbled to the bathroom, then I sprinted for my car
And I sped down the freeway just like a shootin' star
[Chorus]:
It was a great day for a daydream, but I didn't have time
It was a great day for an ice cream, but I did not have the time
It was a great day for a silly wish, but I didn't have time
It was a great day for the perfect kiss, but I did not have the time
[Verse 2]:
I got to work this morning, there were papers on my desk
And my office looked a lot like me, that's to say it was a mess
I darted for my coffee and I downed it like a pill
And I dashed to beat that deadline with no time to kill
[Chorus]:
It was a great day for a daydream, but I didn't have time
It was a great day for an ice cream, but I did not have the time
It was a great day for a silly wish, but I didn't have time
It was a great day for the perfect kiss, but I did not have the time
[Verse 3]:
When I got home this evening, the moon was sinking low
And I wondered where the day had gone, and what I had to show
For all the working hours, for time away from home
When I wake up tomorrow, I'm gonna make that day my own!
[Chorus]:
It was a great day for a daydream, but I didn't have time
It was a great day for an ice cream, but I did not have the time
It was a great day for a silly wish, but I didn't have time
It was a great day for the perfect kiss, but I did not have the time
