Musiałem wyjść z domu o ósmej, bo zawsze tak robię
Mój pociąg, jestem pewien, odjechał ze stacji dokładnie wtedy, kiedy miał być
Musiałem przeczytać poranną gazetę, jadąc do miasta
I po przeczytaniu wstępniaka, bez wątpienia musiałem się zmarszczyć
Musiałem usiąść przy biurku około kwadransa po dziewiątej
Z listami do przeczytania i stertami papierów czekających na podpis
Musiałem pójść na lunch około wpół do dwunastej
Zwykłe miejsce, zwykła grupa
I do tego wszystkiego jestem prawie pewien, że musiało padać
Dzień przed twoim przyjściem
Musiałem zapalić siódmego papierosa o wpół do drugiej
I wtedy nawet nie zauważyłem, że jestem smutny
Musiałem dalej przeciągać się przez sprawy dnia
Tak naprawdę nic nie wiedząc, ukryłem część siebie
O piątej musiałem wyjść, nie ma wyjątku od reguły
Kwestia rutyny, robię to odkąd skończyłem szkołę
Powrót do domu pociągiem
Bez wątpienia musiałem wtedy przeczytać wieczorną gazetę
Och tak, jestem pewien, że moje życie toczyło się w normalnych ramach
Dzień przed twoim przyjściem
Musiałem otworzyć drzwi wejściowe około ósmej
I zatrzymałem się po drodze, żeby kupić chińskie jedzenie na wynos
Jestem pewien, że zjadłem kolację, oglądając coś w telewizji
Nie ma, jak sądzę, ani jednego odcinka Dallas, którego bym nie obejrzał
Musiałem położyć się spać około 12:00
Potrzebuję dużo snu, więc lubię być wtedy w łóżku
Musiałem trochę poczytać
Najnowszą książkę Marilyn French albo coś w tym stylu
To zabawne, ale nie miałem poczucia życia bez celu
Dzień przed twoim przyjściem
I zgaszenie światła
Musiałem ziewać i przytulać się przez kolejną noc
I stukając o dach, musiałem usłyszeć odgłos deszczu
Dzień przed twoim przyjściem

Must have left my house at eight, because I always do
My train, I'm certain, left the station just when it was due
I must have read the morning paper going into town
And having gotten through the editorial, no doubt I must have frowned
I must have made my desk around a quarter after nine
With letters to be read, and heaps of papers waiting to be signed
I must have gone to lunch at half past twelve or so
The usual place, the usual bunch
And still on top of this I'm pretty sure it must have rained
The day before you came
I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two
And at the time I never even noticed I was blue
I must have kept on dragging through the business of the day
Without really knowing anything, I hid a part of me away
At five I must have left, there's no exception to the rule
A matter of routine, I've done it ever since I finished school
The train back home again
Undoubtedly I must have read the evening paper then
Oh yes, I'm sure my life was well within it's usual frame
The day before you came
Must have opened my front door at eight o'clock or so
And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to go
I'm sure I had my dinner watching something on TV
There's not, I think, a single episode of Dallas that I didn't see
I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten
I need a lot of sleep, and so I like to be in bed by then
I must have read a while
The latest one by Marilyn French or something in that style
It's funny, but I had no sense of living without aim
The day before you came
And turning out the light
I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet another night
And rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain
The day before you came
