Lyrics

(Words by van halen)

I woke up to yet another day
Grown to expect, expect more of the same
Except for, for a subtle change
And that is, I'm slowly fading away

Harvest moon, soon will pass
Crop is gone, left only chaff
A bitter pill, and an overcast
A flag unfurled, at half mast
Ahhhhh..

A year to the day
Since you went away
A moment in time
When you were last mine
I'm here standing still
Yeah! with more time to kill
Hey! I barely survived
Yeah, I barely survived

Like pouring salt on an open wound
Memory filling, filling this empty room
I'm as bare, I'm as bare, as a barren womb
Still like the air, in a whitewash tomb
Ahhhhh..

A year to the day
Since you went away
A moment in time
When you were last mine
I'm here standing still
Hey! with more time to kill
I barely survived
Yes, I barely survived

(Guitar solo)

Ahhhhh..

A year to the day
Since you went away
A moment in time
When you were last mine
I'm here standing still
Been standin' still. with more time to kill
Hey! I barely survived
I barely survived

A year to the day!
Year to the day!
Yeah! yeah! yeah! yeah! yeah!
A year to the day!
Three sixty-five!
Three sixty-five, five, fiiive!
Ahhhhh..
