Click hereWith a Tuesday rolling in
minutes bright and counting
A powerless countersong
for a counterday
Fingers numb, head is sore
but yesterday is hours old
And I hear somebody say
"It's gonna be a new day"
And I'm still around
unwritten pale
and new
Tell me your name
and I will follow you
Sunny day is rolling in
still my courage lingers
a thousand mornings down to one
if you'd care to stay
A thousand reasons to get up
A thousand seconds later
I see you stir awake and say
"Hey look, a new day"
And I'm still the same
in morning rolling
gray to blue
Let in the sun
and I will follow you

Then there's the other alternative, rolling over, I don't want to face it.
