  • My friends, they know I won't pick up if they call me
    One day a year and that one day is here
    My tears, just like a summer rain are falling
    It's just what they do
    When I start missing you
    Why'd you have to go?
    Why'd I have to stay?
    When's it gonna get easier to make it through the day?
    I go out walking, I ain't much for talking
    Just thinking and crying, and praying and trying
    To make sense of what don't make sense in this life
    Like, "Why you're up there and not here by my side?"
    They say it's gonna get easier and I wanna believe that's true
    It's just harder on the seventh of June
    Hmm
    I've been singing songs ever since the day you left me
    Crazy how my life has changed
    Every night, a different stage
    And sometimes it feels like you and God are watching
    Are you looking down on me?
    I wonder if you're proud of me
    Oh, I go out walking, I ain't much for talking
    Just thinking and crying, and praying and trying
    To make sense of what don't make sense in this life
    Like, "Why you're up there and not here by my side?"
    They say it's gonna get easier and I wanna believe that's true
    It's just harder on the seventh of June
    Oh, I miss you
    Yeah, I miss you
    Hmm
    I go out walking, I ain't much for talking
    Just thinking and crying, and praying and trying
    To make sense of what don't make sense in this life
    Like, "Why you're up there and not here by my side?"
    They say it's gonna get easier and I wanna believe that's true
    It's just harder, oh, it's just harder
    On the seventh of June
    Oh, oh
    My friends, they know I won't pick up if they call me
    On the seventh of June
    It's just me and you Writer/s: ANNE WILSON, JEFF PARDO, MATTHEW JOSEPH WEST
