I've been waiting for your letter
The one you said you sent last week
Too many mistakes in the address
Life is bittersweet
I'm standing at the station
Train coming soon I'm told
Things get better down the line
It's been a long hard road
Time keeps slipping away
I lost another hour today
I was waiting on you, what do I do
While my time keeps slipping away?
I'm a man of the world
Waiting for the night to call
'Cause the night life is the life I live
When time means nothing at all
So I'm standing on the platform
And the train came rolling by
It's six o'clock in the morning
And the sun's already hanging high
It shines on my and says
Hey, there, what you going to do today?
Well, I'm sure not hanging around this place
My time keeps slipping away
Time keeps slipping away
I lost another hour today
I was waiting on you, what do I do
While my time keeps slipping away?
