ABBA - The Day Before You Came

I must have left my house at eight, because I
always do

My train, I'm certain, left the station just
when it was due

I must have read the morning paper going into
town

And having gotten through the editorial, no
doubt I must have frowned

I must have made my desk around a quarter after
nine

With letters to be read, and heaps of papers
waiting to be signed

I must have gone to lunch at half past twelve or
so

The usual place, the usual bunch

And still on top of this I'm pretty sure it must
have rained

The day before you came

I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half
past two

And at the time I never even noticed I was blue

I must have kept on dragging through the
business of the day

Without really knowing anything, I hid a part of
me away

At five I must have left, there's no exception
to the rule

A matter of routine, I've done it ever since I
finished school

The train back home again

Undoubtedly I must have read the evening paper
then

Oh yes, I'm sure my life was well within it's
usual frame

The day before you came

I must have opened my front door at eight
o'clock or so

And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese
food to go

I'm sure I had my dinner watching something on TV

There's not, I think, a single episode of Dallas
that I didn't see

I must have gone to bed around a quarter after
ten

I need a lot of sleep, and so I like to be in
bed by then

I must have read a while

The latest one by Marilyn French or something in
that style

It's funny, but I had no sense of living without
aim

The day before you came And turning out the
light

I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet
another night

And rattling on the roof I must have heard the
sound of rain

The day before you came
