The Alan Parsons Project, Jack Harris - Day After Day (The Show Must Go On) lyrics

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 farther than he ever could
With time on your side
Think of a boy with the stars in his eyes
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 still got it all to do surely you know
The chance has gone by

Think of a boy with the stars in his eyes
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
(Day after day the show must go on)
With time on your side
(Day after day the show must go on)
