Another Day
Ray Goodman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Another day

Another day
Like yesterday
Another day
Like yesterday

Sunday morning,
But I'm thinking about Saturday night, ha
Had fun with the woman I met
She made me feel so nice
We met at 8 o'clock
She just left an hour ago, oh
She made my day worthwhile
I'll be going back for more

She knew what I wanted
She did'nt waste no time
Beautiful thoughts I have of her
Are running through my mind

I want another day
(Another day like yesterday, another day)
I want another day
(Another day like yesterday, another day)
Another day

Another day
Like yesterday
Another day
Like yesterday

She must know magic
Mystified my mind
You have feel it to believe it
A Houdini a thousand times
She had me floating into space
With her mystifying way
I thought I saw Heaven at the end of a rainbow
All in one single day

She knew what I wanted
She didn't waste no time
Beautiful thoughts I have of her
Are running through my mind

I want another day
(Another day like yesterday, another day)
I want another day
(Another day like yesterday, another day)
Another day

Another day
Like yesterday
Another day
Like yesterday

I want another day
(Another day like yesterday, another day)
I want another day
(Another day like yesterday, another day)
I want another day
(Another day like yesterday, another day)
I want another day
(Another day like yesterday, another day)
I want another day
(Another day like yesterday, another day)




I want another day
(Another day like yesterday, another day)

The beginning of this song is pure bliss. Like waking up on a new day.

@terenciagillermo4355

In the beginning, that flute action takes you directly back to the 70's....The 70's were soulful years. My dad use to say the 70's were his favorite years. I can see that because just about all of my siblings were born in the 70's. I was born in '77. Bless his heart,  R.I.Paradise pops...
