Day For Night

Day for night

I can't wait 'til the time is right

Like a gun waits for war

Like the sun waiting for a light



Pound away

Get it done in just half a day

'Neath the sweltering sky

Get it done, don't ask why



Don't you want to live my way?

Living day for night

Don't you want to live my way?

Why you want to keep trying?

You never get it right

When you could be

Living day for night



Live my dream

There's no dancing in between

Why not let it go?

There's no sense being so extreme

Act instead

There's no life living in your head

The director's long gone

Still the play goes on

And on and on . . . come on!



Don't you want to live my way?

Living day for night

Don't you want to live my way?

Why you want to keep trying?

You never get it right

When you could be

Living day for night



Don't you want to live my way?

Don't you want to live my way?

Why you want to keep trying?

You never get it right

When you could be

Living day for night



Your dreams were disappearing

So you disappeared

Into your head

There's no freshness

In your feelings

So you feel like

Going back to bed

As the mercury rises

There are still some surprises



Solo



Day for night

There's no time

There's no end in sight

Not a moment to lose

There's no voice

You can't choose



Don't you want to live my way?

Living day for night

Don't you want to live my way?

Why you want to keep trying?

You never get it right

When you could be

Living day for night



Repeat to end
