As my time goes by |
|
On the mean, cruel earth |
|
Trying to find some peace |
|
A little something to believe in |
|
How can things go so wrong |
|
In such a beautiful world |
|
Why are so many people crying |
|
Where's humanity gone |
|
And every time it gets so dark |
|
There's nothing for me to see |
|
Something comes along (just like you) |
|
Yea, just like you |
|
Something so unbelievably beautiful |
|
Just like you |
|
Well, it happened the other day |
|
I'm just walking down the street |
|
I'm looking down at my shoes |
|
With only myself in my way |
|
I'm livin' in my head |
|
Too much life in my veins |
|
Forgetting all of the time |
|
We're always in motion with angels |
|
And every time it gets so dark |
|
And there's nothing for me to see |
|
Something comes along (just like you) |
|
Yea, just like you |
|
Something so unbelievably beautiful |
|
Just like you |
|
As my time goes by |
|
On this mean, cruel world |
|
Trying to find some peace |
|
A little happiness to believe in |
|
How can things go so wrong |
|
In such a beautiful world |
|
Why are so many millions crying |
|
Where's humanity gone |
|
And every time it gets so dark |
|
There's nothing for me to see |
|
Something comes along (just like you) |
|
Yea, just like you |
|
Something so unbelievably beautiful |
|
Just like you |
|
Yea come along (just like you) |
|
Yea, just like you (just like you) |
|
Something so unbelievably beautiful |
|
Just like you |
