These Are The Days
Diana Ross · Other Songs - Diana Ross
empty room like an empty heart
lovers stop but they never stay
they dont look back as they drive away
maybe i should fix this broken neon light
fill in the cracks and paint it bright
then maybe love will stop here tonight
and if she knocks on my door
ill give her the key
just one look in her eyes
and i know ill be everything that she sees in me
more than i ever thought i could be but
CHORUS
these are the days
when all that i can do is dream
but i dont wanna spend forever
living in the in between
im stuck here in a place without love
and i just cant let it stay this way
but for now im ganna have to face it
these are the days
gotta use this lonely time
to change the picture in my frame of mind
outside the window theres a sunny day
i wanna feel it on my face
you and i
are out here looking for the same thing
and then to all the wondering
waiting for someone to share this feeling
and if she knocks on my door
ill give her the key
just one look in her eyes
and i know ill be
everything that she sees in me
more than i ever thought i could be
CHORUS
these are the days between your hopes and fears
these are the moments that will still appear
its still uncertin if she will love me
but like it or not this is what i got
ohh cause
these are the days
when all that i can do is dream
but i dont wanna spend forever
living in the in between
and im stuck here in a place without love
and i just cant let it stay this way
but for know im ganna have to face it
cause these are the days
these are the days
and all that i can do is dream
but i dont wanna spend forever living in the in between
im stuck here in a place without love
and i just cant let it stay this way
for now im ganna have to face it
these are the days
