The Best Today

Stuck in a metal tube
I sit and stare at you
You seem to look through me
I wonder what you see
I still have two stations yet
Counting the one that we just left
I wish I could stay with you
And ask you what you do
I figured you love to read
Don’t look for the fault, like me
You probably love the sun
I think you’re the only one
I wish I could wake at dawn
To see you without make up on
Wish I had the guts to say
You look the best today
You look the best today
You look the best today
I feel I know your smile
Like I saw it when I was a child
But today you just frown and bleed
Your eyes flicker perfectly
Rush out, the crush surrounds
Reminds me that we’re still in town
I think of the time when I
Sat and watched a stranger cry
I wish I could wake at dawn
To see you without make up on
Wish I had the guts to say
You look the best today
You look the best today
You look the best today
You look the best today
You look the best today
As I get off the train
Look back to see you through the frame
A man sits and blocks my view
And I forget you
