Another Day
Paul Linda McCartney Lyrics

Every day she takes a morning bath she wets her hair
The woman in the song has a daily routine of taking a bath and wetting her hair.

Wraps a towel around her as she's heading for the bedroom chair
After her bath, she wraps a towel around her and goes to her bedroom.

It's just another day
Her routine is the same every day, so it's an ordinary day for her.

Slipping into stockings, stepping into shoes
She puts on her stockings and shoes as part of getting ready for the day.

Dipping in the pocket of her raincoat
She checks the pocket of her raincoat, possibly for something she needs for the day.

At the office where the papers grow she takes a break
She works in an office with lots of papers and takes a break from work.

Drinks another coffe and she finds it hard to stay awake
She drinks coffee to keep herself awake while working, but it isn't always effective.

As she posts another letter to the sound of five
While mailing a letter, five people gather around her.

People gather 'round her and she finds it hard to stay alive
She feels overwhelmed or anxious with people around her.

So sad, so sad
The woman feels sad.

Sometimes she feels so sad
Her sadness is not constant but it's still frequent.

Alone in her apartment she'd dwell
Sometimes she stays alone in her apartment, possibly to avoid people.

Till the man of her dreams come to break the spell
She hopes to meet someone that she dreams about and wants to break the spell of loneliness.

Ah, stay, don't stand her up
She doesn't want to be rejected by the man in her dreams if they ever meet.

And he comes and he stays but he leaves the next day
She finally meets the man of her dreams but he doesn't stay around.
