What Day Is Today

lyrics

(You're an island)
(You're an island)

I'm on the other side
The river is too high
I cannot see your face
Do you smile or cry

I cannot read the signs
Are we close or far
Is this a final warning
Or a new beginning

Say
What day is today
Say
What day is today

Am I out of line
Am I going blind
I cannot even tell
If the ice is melting or forming
Am I losing you
Or am I losing me
I close my eyes again
And shadows pass me by

Here I stand in line
Looking back in time
I'm too numb to feel
Yet too fragile to conceal
Once a cavalier
Now I'm a souvenir
Tucked into a drawer
With antic dolls and smell of mould

Say
What day is today
(You're an island)
Say
What day is today
(You're an island)
Say
What day is today
(You're an island)
Say
What day is today
(You're an island)

about

Laurie Gordon (vocals, keyboards, guitars, bass, toys), the daughter of Hungarian immigrants, and Krassy Halatchev (bass, ... more vocals, guitars. drums, knobs), born and raised in Communist Bulgaria.
Within three months of their meeting, Krassy was being deported and Laurie had "no choice" but to save the band. What started out as a "green-card marriage" blossomed from desperate measures into true love. less
