[Verse 1]
It's been one of those days
That reminded me in many ways
Of when we were happy, still in love
Just a certain way the wind blows
Just a certain way the sun glows
It's been one of those days that reminded me of us

[Chorus]
And even though it's over, I never will get over
These feelings that I get on certain days
And I know I'll always love you
And I'll always be thinking of you
In certain kinds of ways, on certain kinds of days
And today, it's been one of those days

[Verse 2]
It's been one of those days
And my heart feels so heavy
And my mind is so full of thoughts of you
It's been one of those days
That I'd give my life to see you
And to once more know the love that we once knew

[Chorus]
And even though it's over, I never will get over
These feelings that I get on certain days
And I know I'll always love you
And I'll always be thinking of you
In certain kinds of ways, on certain kinds of days
And today, it's been one of those days

[Outro]
It's been one of those days
That reminded me in many ways
Of when we were happy, still in love

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
