Get me something I need for sympathy
'cause the air I breathe is strangling me alive
The spark lit up
And the flame's still burning, the world's still turning
I'm still learning how to survive
Well here I am
September's walking in the past
One step forward, two steps back
Stop, this train is going too fast
this old clock's running fast
And I can't keep the time
yesterday was yesterday, it fades away
and tomorrow is yesterday's advice
so leave it all behind
yesterday was yesterday
so push play and not rewind
this little town's too cold, it's getting old
But I don't think that I can break the mold
How could I live without
a place to call home, and friends I know,
and heavy coats, and all the snow
I'm still learning how to be a man
Well here I am
September's walking in the past
One step forward, two steps back
Stop, this train is going too fast
Just please slow down
this old clock is running fast
And I can't keep the time
yesterday was yesterday, it fades away
and tomorrow is yesterday's advice
so leave it all behind
yesterday was yesterday
so push play and not rewind
my heart was racing, it was beating in time
that train was moving but it left me behind
I always knew that it would happen in time
this old clock is running fast
And I can't keep the time
yesterday was yesterday, it fades away
and tomorrow is yesterday's advice
so leave it all behind
yesterday was yesterday
so push play and not rewind
my heart was racing, it was beating in time
that train was moving but it left me behind
I always knew that it would happen in time
Just please slow down
