Yo La Tengo
Today Is the Day (Rock Version)
I followed you foolishly
You were at a smoky bar, you were out till 3
Sat alone inside my car, it was nearly 4
Couldn't wait for you all night, so I broke the door
I was going to spend the night, could've been okay
We were going talk all night till I went away

Remember how we used to say, can't stay up late
A minute later and I'm older now, I can't stay awake
I'm driving by you parents' farm in the Chevrolet
I remember that rusty car like it was yesterday

Saw your brother driving by the other day
Wished that I'd go out to him, but he drove away
Saw my sister standing there, accepting blame
And I thought of how nothing ever feels the same

Another day, come and gone
Don't think I can ever sing that song
Little secrets we bring along
I'm taking my time, trailing behind, I thought of you

Another day, come and gone
Don't think I can ever sing that song
Little secrets we bring along
Today is the day, today is the day, I think of you
Another day, come and gone
Don't think I want to sing that song
It's always trouble that makes you strong
Today is the day, today is the day, I think of you
