About This Is the Day

"This Is the Day" is a song by American band Ivy, included on their second studio album, Apartment Life (1997). It was released as the record's third single in the United States on October 19, 1998 by 550 Music following its inclusion in the 1998 American comedy film There's Something About Mary. The group had just been dropped by Atlantic Records but eventually signed to 550 Music after they reissued the parent album. The track was written by Dominique Durand, Adam Schlesinger and Andy Chase, with the latter two producing it. It is a pop and alternative pop song that features the use of horns and was compared to the works of the Smiths. It was released as a CD single in two different formats, with the commercial release featuring two previously unreleased bonus tracks and the promotional release featuring just the album version of "This Is the Day". Music critics liked the track, with most considering it a standout track and noting the possibility of it making Apartment Life more successful. more »

Sooner or later she feels the morning come.
Isn't it safer -- dark thoughts all gone.
What a sensation. 
She has made it through one more tomorrow.
Raising up her eyes to a brand new sky
she knows the truth at last -- 
she's never coming back.

She'll be gone.
So many years...
She'll be gone.
Melting away... 
She'll be gone -- this is the day.

Someone is walking up to the bedroom door.
Hearing him knocking -- 
she knows what it's for.
She's at the window wondering why there is no one to save her.
Raising up her eyes to a brand new sky
she knows the truth at last -- 
she's never coming back.

She'll be gone.
So many years...
She'll be gone.
Melting away... 
She'll be gone -- this is the day.

Raising up her eyes to a brand new sky
she knows the truth at last -- 
she's never coming back.
She'll be gone. So many years...
She'll be gone.
Melting away... 
She'll be gone -- this is the day.
