Lyrics

The clock is ticking minutes going by
There?s one way to the top and that is to fight
Forget the weather everything is going to be fine
Be always true don?t ever lie
There?s always someone?s heart that could be laying on a line
A crooked safety line


We?ve all trampled down the trail before
I could never find the open door
The brighter side can always hide
Forsaking the importance of getting on with your life
This could be your only time


Spent too long scavenging the bottom of a glistening stream
I never opened my eyes to see
That the waters of life in which I was swimming
No!


We?ve all trampled down the trail before
I could never find the open door
The brighter side can always hide
Forsaking the importance of getting on with this life
It could be your only time


We?ve all trampled down the trail before
I could never find the open door
The brighter side can always hide
Forsaking the importance of getting on with your life
This could be your only time

Bah dah bah dah bah dah bah dah dah dah
Bye.
