Wishful thinking won't amount to living
As a selfless person, or the honest guy
Week day drinking, a workplace demeaning
Every good intention for a family life

Remembering jobs, years lost as a father
Never learned how to speak up or say stop right now

Yesterday yearning, memories blurring
e tries to recapture it on the line
Time is ticking, years are passing
Faster and faster right before his eyes

Remembering jobs, years lost as a fathe
Never learned how to speak up or have it stop
With his children gone he sings this song

So long to good times
Bring on the goodbyes
