Verse 1

We always say we're going to get together someday

We'll make a plan, we'll get it done.

But the day grows long

And life goes on

And the years roll by

Verse 2

We try to take an interest

Ask each other what's going on

Try to keep on listening

Long after we're gone

But the day grows long

And life goes on

And the years roll by

Outro

We try to pretend

That morning never happened

We didn't have to stand around wide-eyed

While our love died

But the day grows long

And life goes on

And the years roll by
