Subject: Lyr Add: EVEN A GRAY DAY (Tom Paxton)
Happy V-Day back atcha' Johnny!!

Your description of the day........I love those days too. Something still kinda' good and extra special in them. There's fine Tom Paxton song that I like a lot.......It has a haunting and easy tune...

EVEN A GRAY DAY....Tom Paxton

Even a gray day,
With a cold wind,
Train late again.
Even a gray day,
Is a good day now.

Even a black night,
With hard rain,
Plans down the drain.
Even a hard night,
Is a good night now.

CH:
Fresh out of answers,
I threw in my hand.
Stood with my back to the wall.
Thanks to your kindness that I understand.
It could have been no life at all.

Even a hard time,
With a thin shoe,
Bills coming due.
Even a hard time
Is a good time now.

Even a weekend,
In a strange town,
Snow coming down.
Even a weekend
Is a good time now.

Fresh out of answers,
I threw in my hand.
Stood with my back to the wall.
Thanks to your kindness that I understand.
It could have been no life at all.

Even a gray day,
With a cold wind,
Train late again.
Even a gray day,
Is a good day now.
