ANOTHER DAY (Pete Ham)
[Iveys demo from "Golden Delicious Demos (1966-69)" CD - recorded 1967 - released U.S. 2022]

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

Sleepy eyes close for the night
The young ones kneel and pray
And lovers dream of happy times of yesterday

The sun is sinking out of sight
The stars above shine bright
And lovers part just waiting for another day

(Another day) when I hold you tight so close to me in the sun so bright
(Another day) when I've got no fright and my cares just drift away
Another day, another day, another day
Another day becomes another night
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

One by one, the lights go out
An owl hoots down the way
And the sandman starts to do his nightly rounds (do his nightly rounds)

Suddenly you hear a shout
And laughter, oh, so gay
But you're just dreaming of tomorrow's funny sounds

(Another day) when I hold you tight so close to me in the sun so bright
(Another day) when I've got no fright and my cares just drift away
Another day, another day, another day
Another day becomes another night
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
