You set the timer for the video
You need to know the ending of your favourite show
And that's how the day goes by
You like to listen to the stereo
Singing to the songs you and your friends all know
And that's how the day goes by

You're beautiful to me
You're sweet enough to me

I would give you everything
If I could turn back time
I'd take away those bitter tears
You had to go

I heard they caught you on the second floor
You tried to scream but they cut your throat and you bled
And that's how the day goes by
They talk about you on the radio
But they don't know you the way I know
And that's how the day goes by
