lyrics

These are the steps we take
These are the turns we make
These are the roads we travel down
These are the days that we remember -
Of ticking clocks going round

This is the moment I embrace
When your hand slips into mine
You tell me about your busy day
This is the feeling I'll remember
Of moments soon to fade away

Chorus:
Why can't there be more of you more of me
Less of them in the things that we do
We'd do just fine with the world spinning by
Say good riddance with a smile - and a wave

Don't want to wake up and wonder
If there's something out there I missed
Don't want to let it get me down
Paying the bills aint really living
Passing each other without a sound

Chorus

Yours is the hand I hold
Ours is the story told
This is the stand we make - it's you and me against the world
We are the ones who face
The war of the human race
Playing the hand we're dealt -again and again and again and again
Ready to take the stage
To play all the roles we play
These are the choices made - making the best of it
Trying to find the fit
Dealing with all the - TIME!
Time that is takes to fix
- the broken and bleeding
- the wanting and needing
- the thrill and the boredom
- and everything all of the time

Chorus
