A Day Late, A Dollar Short
Late at night as I lay down to sleep
I think of all the secrets people keep
Like how I feel for you, do you feel it too...
Or is it something we have to resume
We're just two people watching time fly by...
In a world in its obvious decline
But we are young and strong, we can carry on
Find a little paradise of our own
'Cos no one saves the day
It's no one else's fault...
If you're a day late or a dollar short
Hey!
Just think about what lovely life could be...
Excluding all the man-made misery
If we're too far behind... and really out of time
Is there another planet they plan to find?
Too many dreams of youth... that we never caught
Just a day late or a dollar short
We're all just lonely people, only dyin' to fall in love
Feelings that we thought, dreams we never caught
Just a day late or a dollar short
Hey!
The loneliness, the blues
Feeling so distraught
When you're a day late or a dollar short
