[Verse 1]
Rushin' through the mornin', I was late as I could be
No time for coffee or kiss before I leave
The last thing I needed was for my old truck to break
What a way to start the day

[Verse 2]
When I stormed into the house, you didn't say a word
I picked up the telephone and called in late to work
You slipped your robe, I never heard you sneakin' in
But I felt your lips, then we were skin-to-skin

[Chorus]
It could've been a perfect start
To just another day
I could've been right on time
To somewhere I didn't wanna be anyway
Ain't that the way God works?
Ain't that the way life is?
That something unexpected happens
And just like that, I'm holdin' you like this
Oh, what a way to start the day

[Verse 3]
Entangled in each other, two lovers catchin' up
Under the covers, nothin' matters but makin' love
Takin' all the time we need to get back what we've missed
Ah, Heaven knows we've needed this
[Chorus]
It could've been a perfect start
To just another day
I could've been right on time
To somewhere I didn't wanna be anyway
Ain't that the way God works?
Ain't that the way life is?
That something unexpected happens
And just like that, I'm holdin' you like this
Oh, what a way to start the day

[Instrumental Break]

Ain't that the way God works?
Ain't that the way life is?
That something unexpected happens
And just like that, I'm holdin' you like this
Oh, what a way to start the day
And spend the day, end the day

[Outro]
Oh, what a way
