Lyrics Today Is the Day - Yo La Tengo

Today Is the Day

I followed you foolishly
You were at a smoky bar, you were out till three
Sat alone inside my car, it was nearly four
Couldn’t wait for you all night
So I broke the door
I was going to spend the night, could have been okay
We were going to talk all night till I went away
Remember how you used to say, can’t stay up late
A minute later and we’re older now, I can’t stay awake
I’m driving by your parent’s farm, in the Chevrolet
I remember that rusty car, like it was yesterday
Saw my brother driving by the other day
Wished that I’d go out to him, but he drove away
Saw my sister standing there accepting blame
Then I thought of how nothing ever feels the same
Another day come and gone
Don’t think I can ever sing that song
Little secrets we bring along
I’m taking my time trailing behind
I thought of you
Another day come and gone
Don’t think I can ever sing that song
Little secrets we bring along
Today is the day, today is the day
I think of you
Another day come and gone
Don’t think I want to sing that song
It’s always trouble that makes you strong
Today is the day, today is the day
I think of you
