Well the sun sets in the west   But as fast as you go, how would you know   You're a busy boy, i guess   Who just wants the gold at the end of the road   Think of all you miss   Passing through like this      Chorus: you want an answer as soon as you say a prayer   You want to land the moment you're in the air   Baby the living is all in the getting there      Don't be the first in every line   Now and then you can be at the end   'cause there's only so much time   And you can't get back every minute you spend      You're not even sure   What you're running for      Chorus: you want an answer as soon as you say a prayer   You want to land the moment you're in the air   Baby the living is all in the getting there      Think of all you miss   Passing through like this      Chorus: you want an answer as soon as you say a prayer   You want to land the moment you're in the air   Baby the living is all in the getting there      The living is all in the getting there   Getting there
