That Day

Natalie Imbruglia

 

That day, that day

What a mess, what a marvel

I walked into that cloud again

And I lost myself

And I'm sad, sad, sad

Small, alone, scared

Craving purity

A fragile mind and a gentle spirit


That day, that day

What a marvellous mess

This all that I can do

I'm done to be me

Sad, scared, small, alone, beautiful

It's supposed to be like this

I accept everything

It's supposed to be like this


That day, that day

I lay down beside myself

In this feeling of pain, sadness

Scared, small, climbing, crawling

Towards the light

And it's all I see and I'm tired and I'm right

And I'm wrong

And it's beautiful


That day, that day

What a mess, what a marvel

We're all the same

And no one thinks so

And it's okay

And I'm small and I'm divine

And it's beautiful

And it's coming

But it's already here

And it's absolutely perfect


That day, that day

When everything was a mess

And everything was in place

And there's too much hurt

Sad, small, scared, alone

And everyone's a cynic

And it's hard and it's sweet

But it's supposed to be like this


That day, that day

When I sat in the sun

And I thought and I cried

Cause I'm sad, scared, small

Alone, strong

And I'm nothing and I'm true

Only a brave man can break through

And it's all okay

Yeah, it's okay
