Counting Crows – Possibility Days lyrics

[Verse:]
There was a call at 3 A. M. At jfk
Guess you stayed cuz you wanted to stay
And we went from zero everything all in a day
And then Kennedy took you away
I thought of a short robe that was keeping you warm
And the moments that make up your life till you wake up
You sit on a swing in the dark with a girl
She tells you she wanted to kiss you

[Chorus:]
And you know
The worst part of a good day
Is hearing yourself say goodbye
To one more possibility day, goes on, and on

[Verse 2:]
I go west but your weather has changed
But you're scared, and mistaken for strange
You want me to leave then you start to believe
I should stay, I gotta get out of la
It seems that the short days are over
Cause you don't just don't sleep in the daylight
So I don't sit up nights
I lay on my back on top of the hill
And your body is breaking the sky cuz you're shakin'

[Chorus:]
And you know
The worst part of a good day
Is hearing yourself say goodbye
To one more possibility day, yeah, it's gone

[Verse 3:]
We were waiting for winter this year but you came and it never appeared
Me and you, we know too many reasons for people
And season that pass like they weren't even here
Now living in smiles is better you say
We carry the burdens of all of our days
So scared that you'll leave, you're scarred that I'll stay
It's an impossibility day, we only saw half of the ballet
I said good night, goodbye, seems like a good thing
So you know it's a good lie
You can run outta choices and still hear
A voice in your head when you're lying in bed
And it says that the best part of a bad day is knowing it's okey
The color of everything changes the sky rearranges it's shade
And the smile doesn't fade into the phone call and one bad decision we've made

[Chorus:]
And the worst part of a good day
Is the one thing you don't say
And you don't know how but you
Wish there was some way so

[Verse 4:]
And you pull down the shades and you shut out the light
Because somehow you mixed up, goodbye and good night
And you one thing you won't say is everyone
Knows possibility days are impossible
It just feels wrong, so wrong, still you're gone, long gone
