Gaze at the sky  And picture a memory of days in your life  You knew what it meant to be happy and free  With time on your side    Remember your Daddy  When no one was wiser, your Ma used to say  That you would go farther than he ever could  With time on your side    Think of a boy with the stars in his eyes  Longing to reach them but frightened to try  Sadly you'd say someday, someday    But day after day  The show must go on and time slipped away  Before you could build any castles in Spain  The chance had gone by    With nothing to say and no one to say it to  Nothing has changed, you still got it all to do  Surely you know the chance has gone by    Think of a boy with the stars in his eyes  Longing to reach them but frightened to try  Sadly you'd say someday, someday    But day after day  The show must go on and you gaze at the sky  And picture a memory of days in your life  With time on your side    With time on your side   (Day after day the show must go on)  With time on your side   (Day after day the show must go on)    With time on your side   (Day after day the show must go on)  With time on your side   (Day after day the show must go on)
