    Story Behind the Song
    One day my brother called me up and said, "I thought
    of a couple lines that might be good in a song. See what
    you can do." So he gave them to me, and this is what
    I came up with. It's a reminder to me that if you're not
    careful, your ambitions can slip away, just like a pleasant dream.

    Lyrics
    Someone told me about happiness, but I don't know
    So I threw it all away
    Had an idea about happiness, but I did not know
    But I knew it wouldn't stay

    What a day it is today
    Close the curtains and hide my face again
    Change is coming soon, I know that it can

    And I see no reason why
    I must waive my duty to cover
    Everybody wants me to fly
    But all I want to do is hover

    Someone told me about confidence, but I don't know
    So I kept it to myself
    Read a book to boost my confidence, though my hopes were low
    It was written by someone else

    What a day it is today
    Build my hopes up and watch them fade to gray
    We're one breath from solace, I will show you the way

    And I see no reason why
    I must waive my duty to cover
    Everybody wants me to fly
    But all I want to do is hover

    I'll reserve my spot, I ought to save energy
    Retain my fuel for emotion stability
    No thought no plot no course of trajectory
    Keep safe watch over everything that could be
    And it could be

    What a day it is today
    All dressed up for the table to turn my way
    But when that moment will come well you know I can't say

    And I see no reason why
    I must waive my duty to cover
    Everybody wants me to fly
    But all I want to do is hover
