Gaze at the sky
And picture a memory
Of days in your life
You knew what it
meant to be happy and free
With time on your side
Remember your daddy
When no one was wiser
Your ma used to say
That you would go further than
he ever could
With time on your side
Think of a boy with the stars
in his eye
Longing to reach them
but frightened to try
Sadly you'd say
someday someday
But day after day
The show must go on
And time slipped away
Before you could build
any castles in spain
The chance had gone by
With nothing to say
And no one to say it to
Nothing has changed
You've still got it all to do
Surely you know
The chance has gone by
Think of a boy
with the stars in his eye
Longing to reach them
but frightened to try
Sadly you'd say
someday someday
But day after day
The show must go on
And you gaze at the sky
And picture a memory of days
in your life
With time on your side
With time on your side
after day
the show must go on
day after day
the show must go on
day after day
the show must go on
day after day
