I've been thinkin' about your drinkin',
and your runnin' around;
You're out foolin' the fools,
and clownin' the clowns.
But you're still,
the old run-of-the-mill,
do what you feel...
I have one day left to cry,
and I'll still be alive.
Champagne and roses,
money ain't no friend;
Well you still got your worries,
and honey that ain't no sin.
Well if you think I'm fine,
what was that line?
Right place, wrong time?
Just one day untill you're gone,
and I'm still hangin' on.
Why can't you cry for me?
Stand up and die for me?
I did it all along for you.
