Long Day lyrics

Runnin’ down my batteries

Layin’ me out to rest

Knowin’ when that is

Five hours

I wake up empty, stressed

And I’m diggin’ myself into a hole

And these days I just work

Oh well, once I had so much time

And lately I’ve forgotten who I am

Sleep too late, my energy just drained away

And now, my mind is workin’ overtime

It’s been a long day

Such a long day

And while all my contemporaries

(all my friends)

are sitting in college now

(sitting in a desk)

My education is dragging, dragging, innit

My guitar to London town

And the thing that wakes me when

I could sleep instead

Is the thought that tonight

I could fall back into bed

And lately I’ve forgotten who I am

Lately my energy just drained away

And now, my mind is workin’ overtime

It’s been a long day

Such a long day

Recently my head

It ain’t recharged as such

And sleep can only cure

A restless mind so much

Lately I’ve forgotten who I am

Need to let my energy just drain away

And now my mind is workin’ overtime

It’s been a long day

It’s been a long long long day

It’s been a long long long day

It’s been a long day

So long, so long, so long
