Do me this   Make a list   Of what to buy   And where to stand in line   Or you could phone    Back to home    with some advice   On how to stay alive      I could leave   Get space to breathe   But that won't make this ever really change   I could hide   And stay inside   But that wont make this ever go away      So please find something for me to do when you're gone   'cuz life goes on, gettin' longer everyday   Oh, find something for me to do when you're gone   'cuz life goes on, gettin' longer everyday      Some may say    That this will fade   That you'll be far    And time will heal my heart   Like some cliche   It was made to pay   To hide the truth   So nobody lives the blues      You might be sane to drop on by   It would never hurt you anyway      So please find something for me to do when you're gone   'cuz life goes on, gettin' longer everyday   Oh, find something for me to do when you're gone   'cuz life goes on, gettin' longer everyday      I need to learn it's not enough   To end each day in hope   To let you know   I need to learn it's not too much   To end each day on hope   See another sunrise   Let me dig a hole   Let me find something to grow       You could tend   Me the end   Of the tale   But maybe until then   Let me know    That it won't be so   Something's gotta take up everyday      So please find something for me to do when you're gone   'cuz life goes on, gettin' longer everyday   Oh, find something for me to do when you're gone   'cuz life goes on, gettin' longer everyday
