Lyrics for Thursday's Child

All of my life I've tried so hard Doing my best with what I had Nothing much happened all the same Something about me stood apart A whisper of hope that seemed to fail Maybe I'm born right out of my time Breaking my life in two Throw me tomorrow, oh oh Now that I really got a chance Throw me tomorrow, oh oh Everything's falling into place Throw me tomorrow, oh oh Seeing my past to let it go Yeah, Throw me tomorrow, oh oh Only for you I don't regret And I was Thursday's child (oh, oh) Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, born I was Oh, oh Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, born I was Sometimes I cried my heart to sleep Shuffling days and lonesome nights Sometimes my courage fell to my feet Lucky old sun is in my sky Nothing prepared me for your smile Lighting the darkness of my soul Innocence in your arms (Throw me, don't, oh, ah ah, yeah) Throw me tomorrow, oh oh Now that I really got a chance Throw me tomorrow, oh oh Everything's falling into place Throw me tomorrow, oh oh Seeing my past to let it go Yeah, throw me tomorrow, oh oh Only for you I don't regret And I was Thursday's child Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, born I was Thursday's child (oh, oh) Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, born I was Thursday's child (ah ah ah) Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, born I was (ooh, ohh, oh, oh) Ah ah ah Monday, Tuesday (ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah) Wednesday, born I was (ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah) Oh, oh Monday, Tuesday (ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah) Wednesday, born I was ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah) Ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah Monday, Tuesday (ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah) Wednesday, born I was (ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah) Ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah
