A wishbone was broken I'm left holding the smaller part With words left unspoken They rattle round in my empty heart Help me start to lay this burden down On the solid ground
[Chorus:] How many people hold the ones they love Just like there's no tomorrow How many people know the turning hands of time Are stronger than us all
Time's always walkin' I check my watch you'd be forty-five It seems like God just ain't talkin' I wish to God you're still alive Every night I wonder where you are Holding half my heart
[Chorus]
All the days are gone the nights go on Help me hear the words, "walk on"
[Chorus]
I wish I would have told you that The air you breathe was everything
