Here I see a time, to go,
And leave it all behind.
And you know it's wrong, to fall.

We're in it for the money,
We're in it for the money,
We're in it for the money,
We're in it for the money,
We're in it for the money,
We're in it for the money,
We're in it for the money,

Got my mind made up,
Got my finger on the button, going way home,
Got the sound turned down,
Got a feeling in my pocket, going way home,

Well all I can see is our love,
And all I can hear is her,
Well all I can see is our love,
And all I can hear is her.

Got my mind made up,
Got my finger on the button, going way home,
Got the sound turned down,
Got a feeling in my pocket, going way home,

Got my mind made up,
Got my finger on the button, going way home,
Got the sound turned down,
Got a feeling in my pocket, going way home,

Got my mind made up,
Got my finger on the button going way home,
Got the sound turned down,
Got a feeling in my pocket going way home!!

Got it today, what a day, thanks a million!
Spent too much time wondering why I got a feeling,
I know you wanna try to get away,
But it's the hardest thing, you'll ever know!

Waited in line, a terrible time, over to near you,
Fading away, nothing to say, you're all that I'm hearin',
I know you wanna try to get away,
But it's the hardest thing, you'll ever know!

Try to get you, try to get you!
Try to get you, try to get you,
Try to get you, try to get you!
I know you wanna try to get away,
But it's the hardest thing, you'll ever know!

I know you wanna try to get away,
But it's the hardest thing, you'll ever know!

. . .



We're goin' to the party and you never wanna leave it tonight,
Ya come and see the band, I know it means I should push it tonight,
You know it's just a feeling, but I know I'm gonna see her tonight,
Yeah, and everbody knows I'm never gonna get a sleep with tonight
She said when,
I said why,
Yeah, tonight!

We're goin' to a party and you never wanna leave it tonight,
You wanna see the band playin' music, bodies pushin' tonight,
Yeah, I know it's just a feeling that I know I'm gonna see her tonight,
And everybody knows you're gonna follow me around tonight,
She said when,
I said why,
Tonight, I went dry,

The he got out his hand and he took it in mine,
And he still bought two,
And you don't know where I am,
But you see what I've been through,
And he's claiming he was here,
But he'd seen me at five,
And he'd seen me at two,
But you don't know what you are when you see what I've been through,
She said when,
I said why,
Yeah, tonight!!!

. . .



It's late in the day,
I'm thinking of you,
Things that you say.
So long,
So long for me,

It's late in the day,
I'm talking to you
Hear what I say,
So long,
So long for me,

All the time I thought of you ,
In an ordinary way,
You slip back down the heart away,
All I really have to say
Is people pass along the way,
Thoughts of you and me again,

I lay on my bed,
Searching my mind,
Writing my love,
So long,
So long for me,

I sleep on the road,
Dreaming of a sound,
Coming my way,
So long,
So long for me,

All the time I thought of you,
In an ordinary way,
Check back down the heart away,
And all I really have to say
Is people pass along the way,
Thoughts of you and me again,

All the time I thought of you,
In an ordinary way,
You slip back down the heart away,
And all I really have to say
Is people pass along the way,
I close my eyes and turn away,
All the time I think of you,
In an ordinary day,
Check back down the heart away,
And all I really have to say
There's people passin' 'long the way,
Thoughts of you and me again!

Well we jumped all night
On your trampoline
When you kissed the sky
Made your sister scream

You ate our chips
And you drank our Coke
Then you showed me Mars
Through your telescope

Oh Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh Grace
Save your money, save your money girl

Well you sang your songs
And you made us laugh
So we captured you
In a photograph

And when the stars came out
Your Momma called your name
When the morning comes
We'll get together again

Oh Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh Grace
Save your money, save your money girl

Save your money
Save your money for the
Save your money for the children
Save your money for the children

(One more time)

Oh Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh Grace
Save your money, save your money girl

I know a place where the sun hits the sky,
Everything ages and blows out the night,
Everyone knows why my time can't be tied,
Cos I want to be where the sun meets the sky!

I am a doctor,
I'll be your doctor,
I'm on my way,
And you won't come down today,
Live by the rat race,
Been with the rat ones,
And they hold you down,
We'll turn the world around!

Well I just don't know why the sun hits the sky,
Everyone's dreams get to turn out the light,
Living is easy,
When time's on my side,
Cos I want to live where the sun meets the sky!

I am a doctor,
I'll be your doctor,
I'm on my way,
You won't come down today,
Live by the rat race,
Been with the rat ones,
They hold you down,
We'll turn the world around!

I am a doctor,
I'll be your doctor,
I'm on my way,
And you won't come down today,
Live by the rat race,
Been with the rat ones,
They hold you down,
We'll turn the world around!

. . .



As I walk into the night,
I don't feel that my feet have touched the ground,
And I want to carry on,
But I can't see anyone who'd take the time,

There may be troubles, in your mind,
Maybe tomorrow, could be fine,

I feel like going home,
But I don't know if I'm up or coming down,
And I feel there's something wrong,
But I know it's just the time it takes to climb,

There may be troubles in your mind,
Maybe tomorrow, you could be fine,

There may be troubles in your mind,
Maybe tomorrow, you could be fine.

. . .



Over their heads,
I find a place to crawl away,
So many times,
I hear the things they used to say,

Into the night,
The conversation fades away,
Losing the drift,
Of all the things I have to say,

It's not me, no, no, not me,
But I don't know what is,
And I try and find my piece of mind,,
But I know what I miss,
Now it's gone,
Now it's gone,
Now it's gone,

As everyone listens,
My head turns away,
I know what I'm missing,
They have nothing to say,

It's not me, no, no, not me,
But I don't know what is,
I try and find my piece of mind,
But I know what I miss,

No, it's not me, no, no, not me,
But I don't know what is,
I try and find my piece of mind,
But I know what I miss!

. . .



Lift me up,
And move a bit closer,
Holding on to what I know,

She's the one who lives in the fine life,
I see a side you'll never know,

I need someone to be around,
Cos I'm breakin' into life,
Somebody stop me,
Cos I'm lookin' for my,
Lookin' for my high,

She's the one who lives the fine life,
I see a side you'll never know

I need someone to be around,
Cos I'm breakin' into life,
Somebody stop me,
Cos I'm lookin' for my,
Lookin' for my high,

I need someone to be around,
Cos I'm breakin' into life,
Somebody stop me,
Cos I'm lookin' for my high,

Yeah, you and me, yeah,
Now I'm breakin' through the dawn,
Somebody stop me,
Cos I'm lookin' for my,
Lookin' for my....!!!

. . .



If you like me,
You can buy me,
And take me home,

When you see me,
On your TV,
I'm alone,

You can call me,
Tell your story, On the phone,

You can hear me,
Over blue seas,
I'm alone,

You can see me,
I'm not ready to go,
You can see me,
You can see me,
I'm not ready to go,
You can see me,

When you need me,
Come and see me,
And take me out,

In the evening,
When they're sleeping,
In the town,

All the crazies,
Tryin' to space me,
And I don't know,

I'm not easy,
Don't try to please me,
Stay on the phone,

You can see me,
I'm not ready to go,
You can see me,
You can see me,
I'm not ready to go,

If you like me,
You can buy me,
And take me home,

When you see me,
On you TV,
I'm alone,

You can call me,
Tell your story,
On the phone,

You can hear me,
Over blue seas,
I'm alone,

You can see me,
I'm not ready to go,
You can see me,
You can see me,
I'm not ready to go,
You can see me,

You can see me,
I'm not ready to go,
You can see me,

You can see me,
I'm not ready to go,
You can see me!

. . .



I'm tired of thinking things over,
Conversations running 'round in my head,
Good times last so much longer,
And summer love going straight to my head,
Some day when I care,

Cool skies, drinking the sunshine,
Feel the wind blowing through my hair,
It's our time, talking it over,
Take you home for the hell of my bed,
Some day when I care,

Sometimes, clouds will come over,
There'll be spots,
Some fun in your eyes,
One day when we're feeling a lot better,
Take a train to cooler climes,
Someday when I care!

. . .



Shut out the world, you can do it,
Then let me climb inside,
There's only one way you can do it,
Just let your mind unwind,

So to the world I say "Hello!",
But the people don't care,
There's nothing out there,

Once there was a boy,
Spent days all alone,
In a rowing boat,
Living in Rome,
Set sail for the sea,
Get back on this song,
Get back on.

Young love we'll have to through it,
Sometimes I make you sad,
Stamp out the beat so you can do it,
It's like the world we share,

And when the curtain falls on you,
The people don't care,
'Cos nothing out there,

La, la la la la la-------

And not a word I've said is true,
But the people don't care,
'Cos there's nothing out there,
Don't you know!
