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
Another day

[MIMI]
The heart may freeze or 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
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 ever, ever gonna 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

[MIMI, MARK, COLLINS, ANGEL, ROGER]
I can't control (Control your temper)
My destiny (She doesn't see)
I trust my soul (Who says that there's a soul?)
My only goal is just to be (Just let me be)
There's only now, there's only here (Who do you think you are)
Give into love or live in fear (Barging in on me and my guitar?)
No other path, no other way (Little girl, hey, the door is that way)
No day but today (The fire's out anyway)

[MIMI, MARK, COLLINS, & ANGEL, ROGER]
No day but today (Take your powder, take your candle)
No day but today (Take your brown eyes, your pretty smile, your silhouette)
No day but today (Another time, another place, another rhyme, a warm embrace)
No day but today (Another dance, another way, another chance, another day)
No day but today
