Lazy day, wastin' away
Time goes slow, but I can deal
Lazy day will come my way
There are times I'm so alone
No one bothers me
All I've got to do is done, still I'm the lonely one
You're so far away from me
It's times like this that make me feel
I never know what I can do
'Cause these days I'm lost without you
But I can't take another lazy day without you
I can't even touch you with the telephone
And there are times there's nothing I can do
Too many times a day I think about you
The first breath of the morning can last all day
Someday seems so far away - long, long gone
Every single moment is like a million years
I can wait a long, long time
As the narrow path winds on, I can find my way
Winter wind blows cold, the sun don't shine at night
But when the morning comes, it'll be alright
But I can wait 'till someday comes
But I can wait a long, long time to dry the tears
Seems so long ago, the sun was shining bright
But soon the day will come and it'll be alright
So, you've found somebody new / to do the things we used to do
'Cause lovers come and go / but there's one thing I know:
You can take away the stars at night, take away the sky
I know you're miles and miles away / it seams there's nothing left to say
As seasons come and go / there's one thing I know:
But no one loves you like I do / I know you'll feel it someday soon
You can take it all, and I'll be fine - when your heart finds mine
But you can't throw my love away / the miles grow shorter every day
So many lifetimes, waiting for the day
When I dream of heaven, I can taste the wine
Can you hear my song, can you hear the voices sing?
So many games I've had to play
So many words get thrown away
So many words I want to say
But you're too far away
But the morning wakes me everytime
I wish the dream would last all day
So many words I want to say
But you're too far away
I wonder, can you hear anything?
So many words get thrown away
So many words I want to say
But you're too far away
Goodbye is the hardest word I've ever had to say
Now it's time to close the door
Like sand through my fingers, it all just slips away
But you know, sometimes it's the only way
It's been a long time believing the lies in my heart
Sometimes you've gotta close your eyes and make a new start
Can't keep it open anymore
I can't hold on, 'cause I know - I know
It's time to let go
Where does it go?
Like rain that never goes away, you won't be back another day
Now it's time to let go
Little one, lying in your bed
Tonight / lay your head down low
Sail away through the clouds, silver and grey
Tomorrow is another day
Breath by breath on through the night
Breathe easy, and count the little white ones in your head
One by one, they fall in line
Never look back, what's left behind?
Slide away / Lie awake no more
Tonight / before the sun shines bright
Slide away
There's a ladder, and there's a man on his way
Step by step, you see him climb
rung by rung up to the sky
So lay down your head and slide away
Breath by breath, 'till morning light
It's a great big ocean / I'm floating in my boat upon the sea
Was it the bait, the hook, or the fisherman? / I fought all day
Should've seen the one that got away
It's a great big ocean / so many fish in the sea
So many fish in the ocean / but I'm afraid there's only one for me
I casted out my line, she took a bite
That bite wasn't enough for me
Guess I'm not much of a fisherman / I let the big one get away
Almost had it all, I took a fall
Now all I can do is say:
She was right here in my hands, but she wouldn't stay
She took the line, and broke this heart of mine
And now she's just the one that got away
But I'm not much of a fisherman / I let you get away from me
Now I've found somebody new, I guess she'll do
Life goes on, but you'll always be the one that got away
Turn to touch someone, there's nobody there - no one to care
You might be lonely, but you're not alone
Sometimes you feel like you're the only one waiting for your day to come
You might be lonely, but you're not alone
You're not the only one
Where can you go, when you've got so much to share and nobody there?
You've grown so tired of living on your own - remember
And sometimes you lie awake until the morning sun, but you're not the only one
When it feels like there's nobody home - remember
We're not the only ones
It's a child's game, but still we play it every day
When we were younger, it seemed the world was ours
It's not the same - you can do it again and again,
Thought I saw an old friend of mine yesterday
Years ago, it seemed the well would never dry
There ain't no rules, just a game that children play
There ain't no winners, I know I'm gonna lose
'Cause every man's a sinner, you know it's true:
Every man's a fool
But now, the world's gone sour - everything has changed
But it's never the same - as your first time in the rain
It's not the same - you can do it again, if you can deal with the pain
But baby, it's not the same
I can't recall his name
I think he recognized me, too, but then he turned away
It's not the same - it's not the same
But now it's passed me by - everything has changed
Living alone, watching the world go by
Something that lasts forever, they say it can't be done
Just when I thought the well was dry
I've been playing a game, they say it can't be won
Wanna come along for the ride
People so afraid, no one wants to try
It's like I'm searching for something that I'll never find
But now the search is over - you could be the one
You come along and break out the wine
Lord, I'm thirsty, can you spare a drop of rain?
To wash away the tears of yesterday
But now the game is over - you could be the one
