Not Another Day

Mari Nakamoto

Compositor: Janis Ian

When you go around again
Be prepare to stay
I won't have you back again
Not another day
I smell that sweet perfume on every sheet
In every room
I'm not prepared to share my life this way
And I won't be here next time you want to play

Every time I'm loving you
I can see his face, doing everything I did
In every secret place
I can taste it on his lips, I feel it in my fingertips
I think I'm gonna die, but I just stay
But I'm living on the edge of time and I'm fading
I can't take the waiting, honey, I see that I'm wasting away

I know he treats you well, he taught me so, and it hurt like hell
But I can't take it if you want me to
Whatever you make it, I'll see it through
Cause I'm living on the edge of a one-way street
When you take that road, you don't know who you'll meet
And I don't want to lose the love I need

Every time I'm loving you, I can see his face
Doing everything I did, in every secret place
I can taste it on his lips, I feel it in my fingertips
I think I'm gonna die, but I just stay
But I'm living on the edge of time and I'm fading
I can't take the waiting, honey, I see that I'm wasting away

I know he treats you well, he taught me so, and it hurt like hell
But I can't take it if you want me to
Whatever you make it, I'll see it through
Cause I'm living on the edge of a one-way street
When you take that road, you don't know who you'll meet
And I don't want to lose the love I need

Not another day
