[Chorus]

The way the day was lost

When you were golden

And where you were at last

Where things are dragging

I waited for a while

For you to come there

The days were golden when

I could eat again

[Verse 1]

For a while

I was in a bliss

The day you’d spoken

Is when that ended

I didn’t see it through

And there came the end

It wasn’t much of anything

Until much later than

When I’d done

I felt better than

How I did when I

Was still unspoken

The weather takes its toll

The house is broken

It’s better for a while

And then it’s blackened

[Chorus]

The way the day was lost

When you were golden

And where you were at last

Where things are dragging

I waited for a while

For you to come there

The days were golden when

I could eat again

[Verse 2]

In an hour

It’ll come again

That feeling so amusing

It’ll make me feel dead

So joyous to refuse

And happy to accept

At least it is a world

Where things will make sense

Say you’re getting straightened

Like that crummy razor edge

So rusted and abused

If that rust is red

And they’ll find it amusing

I’ll say this in bed

When I’m breathing it’ll be

Circling in my head

[Chorus]

The way the day was lost

When you were golden

And where you were at last

Where things are dragging

I waited for a while

For you to come there

The days were golden when

I could eat again
