Well, my days went by at a dizzying pace I was always running to and from And then before I even knew where I was Off to dreamland I would go
But now I realize that a day of my life Is the price I must pay for tomorrow You have taught me to treasure every day With its joy and its sorrow
You know that I'm the one Who's always being swept away Always torn apart How I wish that there was something I could do for you Simply from my heart Darling, at the close of day Silently for love we'll pray
Now night has finally come to the busy city sky Where quietly the moon is shining down On the paths of people hurrying home She sheds her light all around
And in this heart of mine your love is shining down It's lighting up my future and my past That is the reason I'm living now Treating each day as my last
And if you want to know the reason I'm crying, dear It's 'cause I love you so How I wish that there was something I could for you Just to let it show Darling, at the close of day, silently for love we'll pray
Now if you want to know the reason I'm crying, dear It's 'cause I love you so How I wish that there was something I could for you Just to let it show Tomorrow's just a dream away, Close the curtain on today
