The clock has drained your life away and you'll never get it back again
Your dreams all died when you grew up and you'll never feel the same again
When you were young life seemed so free and you never had to worry
But now it's all just a distant memory and you can't reach it
The world keeps turning with or without you
And you can't change it no matter what you do
Things sure ain't what they used to be, used to see you out every night
But now you're stuck home with your wife, I can see that you're not happy
I bet you didn't see it coming are you really happy with your life
My world remains the same, it keeps turning without you
Your dreams all died when you grew up and you'll never feel the same again

But now you're stuck home with your wife, I can see that you're not happy
I bet you didn't see it coming are you really happy with your life
My world remains the same, it keeps turning without you
