Don't know how it got away from me Don't know how I let things go, you see Don't know why it took a sudden turn Didn't seem to be a big concern And everything is all too much Hot and bothered, you're cool to the touch And everyone is worlds apart It must have been this way from the start
When there's nothing here to save the day Then we have to say There's a reason for it When there's nothing left for us to do You're left without a clue There's a reason for it
Don't know how it got away from me Don't know how I let things go, you see Don't know why it took a sudden turn Didn't seem to be a big concern And everyone is all too well All well-adjusted people Can't you tell? And everything is all too fast Just add water Nothing's built to last
When your colleagues can't recall your name Time and time again There's a reason for it When your name's the butt of every joke Just about to croak T here's a reason for it And everyone is worlds apart It must have been this way from the start When there's nothing here to save the day Then we have to say There's a reason for it When there's nothing left for us to do You're left without a clue There's a reason for it There's a reason for it There's a reason for it There's a reason for it
A Little Bit
And it will take a little bit of extra time To make it shine, to make it shine And it will take a little bit of extra care To bring it where you think it's there
And there's no one else around This is what I've found Anyone you see Anyone you meet Some one at your feet Anyone could be that one Anyone you know Anywhere you go Some one in a show Could be that one
And it will take a little bit of all you've got To get a shot, get a shot And it will take a little bit of extra care To bring it where you think it's there
And there's nowhere else to go This is what I know Anyone you see Anyone you meet Maybe down the street Anyone could be that one Everywhere you look Pages of a book All the years it took Everything got you down
And it will take a little while to get back home The road is long, the road is long And it will take a little work to get it back To mend the cracks, to bridge the gaps
Anyone you see Could be the one Anyone you meet Could be that one Some one at your feet Could feel the same Maybe you'd complete Could share your name Anywhere you look Pages of a book Everything she took Never let it keep you down
Holding out for used Broken up and bruised Losable to lose Anywhere you go Anyone you know Think it doesn't show Everybody knows Anyone you meet Maybe down the street (And it will take a little time to get back home) Some one at you feet
