Long is the day, take it away
Hold it up and you don't let it fall
Cause devils play was yesterday
And I don't care about that at all

I just smile, once in awhile
Because I don't want the lines on my face
And I sit right here, holding the years
And I count all the stars in space

You fall apart again and you can find a friend
Don't turn to someone else because they won't understand...

Self respect, goes unexpressed
I don't dream because I cannot sleep
And I think the world of myself
But the world doesn't think much of me
As long as the day is full of time there will always be room for
Your hand in mine

You fall apart again and you can find a friend
Don't turn to someone else because they won't understand...
I don't want to hear you say that you miss yesterday,
If you don't like what you see that means nothing to me

No one's home, I'm alone
With my music and my TV
And I still say that yesterday
Is best left to sleep

You fall apart again and you can find a friend
Don't turn to someone else because they won't understand...
I don't want to hear you say that you miss yesterday,
If you don't like what you see that means nothing to me
