That sleepy old sun finally reared its head
Sneakin' through the window sayin' get out of bed
Kids are laughin' and playin' outside in the streets
I step out on my front porch in my bare feet
Drink my coffee, walk the dog
Then I'll stop by your house
'Cause I was hopin' maybe
We could just hang out

Chorus:
'Cause days like this are made for doing nothin'
But layin' around soakin' up your lovin'
There ain't nothing better than a long, lingering kiss
On days like this

Let the wind blow wild
Let it mess up our hair
Watch the world blow by like we don't have a care
When those old crickets start singin'
And the moon shows its face
We'll still be lying on this blanket
Letting time slip away

Days like this are made for doing nothin'
But layin' around soakin' up your lovin'
There ain't nothin' better than a long, lingering kiss
On days like this

There ain't nothing wrong with bein' lazy
So come on over here and love me baby
Love me baby

Days like this are made for doing nothin'
But layin' around soakin' up your lovin'
There ain't nothin' better than a long, lingering kiss
On days like, days like this

Days like this
Days like this

Floorboard's filled with baby toys,
An' empty coke bottles an' coffee cups.
Drivin' through the rain with no radio,
Tryin' not to wake her up.
Cell 'phone says "low battery",
God, what if I break down?
I'm just lookin' for an exit with a lotta lights,
A safe little interstate town.

Just a cheap hotel,
With a single bed,
And cable TV:
Is good enough for me an' Emily.

Some day, when she's old enough,
She's gonna start askin' questions about him.
Some kid at school brings his Dad for show an' tell,
An' gets her little mind a-wonderin':
"Where's my Daddy? Do I have one?
"Does he not love me like you do?"
Oh, maybe I'll find someone to love the both of us,
An' I'll tell her when she's old enough to know the truth.

Will it break her heart?
Will she understand,
That I had to leave?
That's what was best for me an' Emily.

That house was never clean enough; his dinner never warm enough.
Nothing I did was ever good enough to make him happy.
So, I guess, he gave me what he thought I deserved,
But it would kill me if he ever raised his hand to her.

Big rigs are throwin' rain on my windshield,
An' I feel like they're laughin' at me.
Fin'lly the storm is lettin' up,
An' the mornin' is breakin' free.

It's a brand new day,
It's a second chance.
Yesterday is just a memory,
For me an' Emily.

Floorboard is filled with baby toys,
An' empty coke bottles an' coffee cups.
Least there's one good thing that he gave me,

So hard to know the reasons
It's hard to know the truth
When it's all over
Every time I look back
I just get more confused
So I replay every kiss and
Every clue I might have missed

Didn't I make you happy?
Didn't I get inside your heart?
Didn't I make you love me?
Didn't I, didn't I now baby
I turn my world upside down
I turned myself inside out
But I still lost you
Didn't I didn't I

Why do I keep believing?
What am I hoping for?
Why can't I let you go?
I did all I could do
Why do I think there's something more?
I just don't understand
How love slipped right through our hands

Didn't I make you happy?
Didn't I get inside your heart?
Didn't I make you love me?
Didn't I, didn't I now baby
I turn my world upside down
I turned myself inside out
But I still lost you
Didn't I

Why do I think the fault is mine?
Was it me at the wrong time?
Maybe I could move on
If I knew the reason why

I turned my world upside down
I turned myself inside out
And I still lost you
