That Kind of Night

It's that kind of day that brings back memories
That kind of day that feels like nothing's going on
It's that kind of day where things could be done
But I'd rather sit and think about memories.
Cause it's that kind of day

It's that kind of day where the clouds are grey
That kind of day that feels twice as heavy as it should
It's that kind of day that wants to sit in front of fire
And wear a sweater and drink hot chocolate.
That's the kind of day

So for now I'll think about times gone by
I wont worry about what could be done
I'll forget about time, reminiscing
Remembering Christmas Tyme and snow
And Family and camp and sunsets and
I wont forget them, because I love them.

And when I've remembered it all
Laughed, smiled, thought and cried,
And the reminiscing is over, then
Then I'll dream, yes, I'll dream
I'll dream of all that’s to come,
I'll dream of my future wife,
And then of our firstborn son,
I'll dream of giving her my life.

Then the fire will go out
An empty mug in my lap
Curled in an armchair
Covered in blanket
Eyes closed
Goodnight
