Guess I'll always have to be Living in a fantasy From now on That's the way it's got to be It's you for you, and me for me Monday has come around again I'm in the same old place With the same old faces always watching me Who knows how long I'll have to

You got me workin' workin' day and night You got me workin' day and night (that's why) And I'll be workin' From sun up to midnight How can you live girl 'cause love for us was meant to be (well) Some other guy instead of me (ooh)

In the city I know there must be somethin' better In the city, oh, oh. Somewhere out there on that horizon Out beyond the neon lights But there's nowhere else in sight It's survival in the city When you live from day to day City streets don't have much

Before they take it all away Trying to see if the world is still alive What are you waiting for, I'm here Let the day go by Let's consume it all I hear them from the other side As I sit and let the day go by I hear them from the other side (other side)

So let me restart What do you want from me when I just wanna restart You keep coming back for me when you're the one who tore us apart And the truth is I'm better on my own And I don't want to live in the past It was a Monday night when you told me it

You try to live your life from day to day But seeing you across the room tonight Just gives me away The heart won't lie Looking back over the years Of All the things I've always meant to say But words didn't come easily So many times through empty fears

Who wants to live forever? Forever is our today There's no time for us There's no place for us What is this thing that builds our dreams Yet slips away from us? There's no chance for us It's all decided for us This world has only one

I took a heavenly ride through our silence Where were you when I was burned and broken While the days slipped by from my window watching And where were you when I was hurt and I was helpless 'Cause the things you say and the things you do surround me

Guess I'll always have to be Living in a fantasy From now on That's the way it's got to be It's you for you, and me for me Monday has come around again I'm in the same old place With the same old faces always watching me Who knows how long I'll have to

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way. Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town Waiting for someone or something to show you the way. Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to
