lyrics

it was a lovely day
everything was going so well
so well, it was a lovely day

I was pretty happy this time
I thought you were, too, feeling fine
oh, how things seem to change

oh, darling I tried
to keep our love alive
I really tried
I even cried
well, at least I tried
and we had a lovely day

last summer, I know
I think I had the best time
that I ever had with you
and darling, don't you think
we had the best time
we ever thought we'd have
oh, just see how perfect things
can be sometimes
oh, just see how perfect things
can be sometimes
oh, just see how lovely
how lovely life can be

oh, darling I tried
to keep our love alive
I really tried
I even cried
but at least I tried
and we had a lovely day

is it time
to finally sleep
is our lovely day
coming to a close
is it time to dream away
all our dismay
