SONG:Another Day

Roger:
who do you think you are?
barging in on me and my guitar
little girl - hey
the door is that way
you better go you know
the fire's out anyway
Take your powder - take your candle
your sweet whisper
i just can't handle
Well take your hair in the moonlight
your brown eyes - goodbye, goodnight
I should tell you, i should tell you
i should tell you, i should - no!!
Another time - another place
our temperature would climb
there'd be a long embrace
we'd do another dance
it'd be another play
looking for romance?
come back another day
mimi:
the heart may freezeor it can burn
the pain will ease if i can learn
There is no future
there is no past
i live this moment as my last
There's only us
there's only this
forget regret
or life is yours to miss
no other road
no other way
no day but today
roger:
excuse me if i'm off track
but if you're so wise
then tell me - why do you need
smack?
Take your needle
take your fancy prayer
and don't forget
get the moonlight out of your hair
long ago - you might've lit up my heart
but the fire's dead - ain't never ever
gunna start
Another time - another place
the words would only rhyme
we'd be in outer space
it'd be another song
we'd sing another way
you wanna prove me wrong?
come back another day
another day
mimi:
there's only yes
only tonight
we must let go
to know what's right
no other course
no other way
no day but today
