The alarm clock's buzzin', and I'm thinkin' wasn't it Just a minute ago Since you and me lover Climbed under the covers, now it's already time to go
'Cause we're under the gun, there's things to be donePlaces we gotta be. I'm wishin' instead, I could stay in bedWith you cuddled close to me
We're long on love, but short on timeWe may get another penny ahead, but our hearts fall further behindWish I had a few more hours in the dayOr I could make this clock unwind'Cause we're long on love, but short on time
The coffee's perkin', and soon we'll be workin'Watchin' that clock on the wall, trying to hurry every minuteFor the work day to finish, and the five o'clock hammer to fall
About a quarter after five, we'll be pullin' in the driveAnd pullin' down a curtain or two, and turnin' off the phone'Cause some overtime at home has been way overdue
We're long on love, but short on timeWe may get another penny ahead, but our hearts fall further behindWish I had a few more hours in the dayOr I could make this clock unwind'Cause we're long on love, but short on time
