Not a Day Goes By by Stephen Sondheim

[dreamsalive]

The brilliance of Sondheim: This song was sung to explain a cruel divorce, and was also a wedding duet.

Not a day goes by,
Not a single day
But you're somewhere a part of my life
And it looks like you'll stay.

As the days go by,
I keep thinking, "When does it end?
Where's the day I'll have started forgetting?"
But I just go on
Thinking and sweating
And cursing and crying
And turning and reaching
And waking and dying
And no,
Not a day goes by,
Not a blessed day
But you're still somehow part of my life
And you won't go away.

So there's hell to pay
And until I die,
I'll die day after day
After day after day
After day after day
After day
Till the days go by,
Till the days go by,
Till the days go by!
