The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Late at night as I lay down to sleep

I think of all the secrets people keep

like how I feel for you

Do you feel it too

or is it something we have to resume

We're just two people watching time fly by

In a world in it's obvious decline

But we are young and strong

We can carry on

Find a little Paradise of our own

'cos no one saves the day

it's no one else's fault

if you're a day late or dollar short

Just think about how lovely life could be

Excluding all the man-made misery

If we're too far behind

And really out of time

Is there another world they plan to find?

Too many dreams of youth

That we never caught

Just a day late or dollar short

We're all just lonely people

Only dyin' to fall in love

Feelings that we thought

Dreams we never caught

Just a day late or dollar short

All the loneliness, the blues

Feelings so distraught

When you're a day late or a dollar short

Too many dreams of youth

That we never caught

Just a day late or a dollar short

And no one saves the day

It's no one else's fault

When you're a day late or a dollar short
