I'm off to work with no kiss of goodbye
I wear a smile on my face but I lie
Cup of coffee at the corner cafe
Catch the bus reading news on my way
Go through motions to whole morning cool
Start a day in the life of a fool
Sometimes I dial out number in hopes you'll return
But there's never any answer, I guess I'll never learn
Hurry home after my work is through
Check the mailbox, no letter from you
Then I rush up the stairs to my memories of you
That's a day in the life of a fool
Yes, I rush up the stairs to my memories of you
That's a day in the life of this fool
