Wishful thinking won't amount to living
As a selfless person, or the honest guy
Week day drinking, a workplace demeaning
Every good intention for a family life
Remembering jobs, years lost as a father
Never learned how to speak up or say stop right now
Yesterday yearning, memories blurring
He tries to recapture it on the line
Time is ticking, years are pa**ing
Faster and faster right before his eyes
Remembering jobs, years lost as a father
Never learned how to speak up or have it stop
With his children gone he sings this song
So long to good times
Bring on the goodbyes
