Lyrics

Twenty-eight days
Just twenty-eight days
Before you depart for the coast
You’d been here a while
When I first saw you smile
Don’t know why I loved you the most

Just twenty-eight days
And twenty-eight ways
To learn how to bid you farewell
You’ll tell me I must
Grow up and adjust
Bite my lip - as I watch you depart

As shadows grow longer
The sun’s going down
I don’t doubt a new day will dawn

Though I’m loosing the race
I’ll put on a brave face
And nobody will know on the day
So don’t shed a tear
There’s nothing to fear
From this fool who’s left out in the rain

I’ll have to adjust
You know that I must
To the emptiness you’ll leave behind
With so much left unsaid
I’ll just listen instead
To the silence that roars in my mind

As shadows grow longer
The sun’s going down
I don’t doubt a new day will dawn

Just twenty-eight days
And twenty-eight ways
To learn to get by without you
You’re etched in my mind
Your features defined
I’ll still see you though you’re far away

As our shadows grow longer
And the sun’s going down
I don’t doubt a new day will dawn

really
pleasant, 'light and airy'. I love the whole sound, the harmonies and your voice is great. Nice song, along with the words. Could be a backing song for a lighthearted TV love story/sit-com. I like it a lot, M
