Another Day
Denny Seiwell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wraps a towel around her as she's heading for the bedroom chair
It's just another day
Slipping into stockings, stepping into shoes
Dipping in the pocket of her raincoat
It's just another day
At the office where the papers grow she takes a break
Drinks another coffe and she finds it hard to stay awake
Do do do do do do, it's just another day
Do do do do do do, it's just another day
So sad, so sad
Sometimes she feels so sad
Alone in her apartment she'd dwell
Till the man of her dreams come to break the spell
Ah, stay, don't stand her up
And he comes and he stays but he leaves the next day
So sad
Sometimes she feels so sad
As she posts another letter to the sound of five
People gather 'round her and she finds it hard to stay alive
It's just another day
Do do do do do do, it's just another day
Do do do do do do, it's just another day
So sad, so sad
Sometimes she feels so sad
Alone in her apartment she'd dwell
Till the man of her dreams come to break the spell
Ah, stay, don't stand her up
And he comes and he stays but he leaves the next day
So sad
Sometimes she feels so sad
Every day she takes a morning bath she wets her hair
Wraps a towel around her as she's heading for the bedroom chair
It's just another day
Slipping into stockings, stepping into shoes
Dipping in the pocket of her raincoat
It's just another day
Do do do do do do, it's just another day
Do do do do do do, it's just another day
The lyrics of Denny Seiwell's "Another Day" narrate the mundane routine of a woman who seems to be losing her enthusiasm for life. The song starts with her taking a morning bath and prepares herself to face just another day. The repetition of this phrase emphasizes the monotony and lack of excitement in her life. She dresses up and heads to the office, where she takes a break and drinks coffee as she finds it hard to stay awake. This indicates that her work is boring, and she is unfulfilled.
The woman's sadness is apparent in the lyrics, as she dwells alone in her apartment waiting for the man of her dreams to come and break the spell that she feels trapped in. The man comes, but he leaves the next day, leaving her feeling sad and alone again. She posts another letter, and people gather around as she finds it hard to stay alive. The lyrics suggest she is struggling with feelings of loneliness and isolation.
Through this song, Seiwell portrays the struggles of everyday life, which can be monotonous and disheartening. The woman's story is relatable to anyone who has felt stuck in routine or struggled with loneliness. The repetition of "it's just another day" indicates a sense of hopelessness and resignation, suggesting that sometimes life can seem like a cycle that is difficult to break.
