Lyrics

I know it's today so I guess you could say one recovers

I acknowledge the present moment, suggesting a process of recovery.

Thought you should call me but then after all we were lovers

Although I expected you to call, considering our past relationship.

I don't wait by the phone like I used to

I no longer anxiously wait for your calls as I did before.

I don't hope for kind words you might say

I don't anticipate hearing kind words from you anymore.

You don't prey on my mind like you used to

You no longer occupy my thoughts as intensely as before.

But you can still ruin my day

Despite the changes, your presence still has the power to negatively affect my day.

You can still ruin my day

Reiteration of the idea that you can still have a detrimental impact on my day.


You're telling me now you regret how we never connected

You express regret about our lack of connection.

Oh as if you forget that it's me you regret you rejected

You seem to conveniently forget that you rejected me and now express regret.

I don't easily forgive like I used to

I find it difficult to forgive, unlike in the past.

And I seldom get carried away

I rarely allow myself to get overly emotional or carried away.

No you don't have the pull that you used to

Your influence over me has diminished, but you can still impact my day negatively.

But you can still ruin my day

Emphasizing that despite changes, you still have the power to ruin my day.

Oh you can still ruin my day

Reiteration of the idea that you can still have a detrimental impact on my day.


Love, it was nothing

Reflecting that the past love was inconsequential and didn't hurt much.

It hardly hurt a bit

Reiterating that the past love didn't cause much pain.


Sounds good to me but unfortunately I remember it

Expressing agreement with the idea that the past was not significant, but the memory remains.

Now I don't lose my place like I used to

I don't easily lose my focus or emotional stability as before.

I'm not moved by your ? display

I am not swayed by your attempts to impress or influence me.

No you can't draw me in like you used to

You can't engage me as deeply as before, but you can still negatively affect my day.

But you can still ruin my day

Emphasizing that despite changes, you still have the power to ruin my day.

You can still ruin my day

Reiteration of the idea that you can still have a detrimental impact on my day.

You can still ruin my day

Continued emphasis on your ability to ruin my day.


You can still ruin my day

Reiteration of the idea that you can still have a detrimental impact on my day.

I said you can still ruin my day

Final affirmation that you retain the power to ruin my day.
