All I got is time
Nothing else is mine
All I want is you and one more tomorrow
Nothing lasts too long
When I leave it's gone
So I send my mind ahead and hope to follow
Yes, I know I have a lifetime coming
But I've got it all figured out
Everybody's lonely
Everybody's lonely
Everybody's lonely
That's what it's all about
I've had my share of heartaches
Misfortune and mistakes
Occasionally this life has left me battered
But I can't blame no one else
'Cause what I've done to myself
Is the only kind of history that matters
Yes, I know I have a lifetime coming
But I've got it all figured out
Everybody's lonely
Everybody's lonely
Everybody's lonely
That's what it's all about
Now, maybe you'll come with me
And maybe you will stay
And maybe you'll just watch awhile then wander
It seems like all the good things
In my life just drift away
But maybe you will stay this time, I wonder
Yes, I know I have a lifetime coming
But I've got it all figured out
Everybody's lonely
Everybody's lonely
Everybody's lonely
That's what it's all about
