One more early morning One more late afternoon Once more you're out in the wind And once more you come in too soon
It's a long road, oh man And it's a hard road You wanna make sure to make all the friends that you can make You ain't worth much more to them Than the worth of what you give And the worth of what you take
In this old ritual of compassion Well, you just fail and fall behind Now you're running Seems to be running You're running out of time
You know it ain't love No, you know it ain't love Unless it's eating you alive When you're in your bed at night
No, you know it ain't love You know there can't be no love Unless it comes howlin' out of you Then you know the time is right
Ah you wait so long And now you don't know Now you don't know what to do Except to pray for your love To come returning on back to you
You dry out with all of this bitterness and fear And with every passing year Nothing's really real to you Except this pain that you feel
You will come to realize That you had your day Someday oh so long ago When somebody came a-calling at your door And you pretend that you were not home
Now you're running You're running You're running out of time
