You sit in church on Sunday |
|
Running figures in your head |
|
You plan tomorrow's meetings |
|
As I slip off to bed |
|
No time for the children's homework |
|
Lord, you never take a rest |
|
You can't let the simple things |
|
Interfere with your success |
|
White collar man |
|
With a briefcase in your hand |
|
Can you hear your children call from your backyard |
|
They need you in their world right now |
|
More than things that you grew up without |
|
Precious time is running through your hands |
|
White collar man |
|
You can't unwind on the weekends |
|
Like you did in our younger days |
|
The deadlines and promotions |
|
I can read them on your face |
|
Your family need attention |
|
And you need some time alone |
|
What you gave at the office |
|
There's not much left when you get home |
|
White collar man |
|
With a briefcase in your hand |
|
Can you hear your children call from your backyard |
|
They need you in their world right now |
|
More than things that you grew up without |
|
Precious time is running through your hands |
|
White collar man |
|
Can't you see they need you in their world right now |
|
More than things that you grew up without |
|
Precious time is running through your hands |
|
White collar man |
