When Time Is Short - Allan Taylor/Chris Jones/Siard De Jong/Christine Maringer-Tries/Hans-Joerg Maucksch

How come we can't get along

We tried so hard and it all goes wrong

It's hard to be wise and strong

When time is short and nights are long

Problems always come around

When dreams are built on shaky ground

When and way out can't be found

Crying at night is a lonely sound

We don't know what to do

To find a way to get us through

What is right what is true

What is good for me and you

What is good for me and you

Sorry can be hard to say

When pride and fear get in the way

It just gets worse from day to day

Sorry can be hard to say

So close your eyes and let it go

Let your dreams drift with the flow

It takes time for love to grow

Close your eyes and let it go

We don't know what to do

To find a way to get us through

What is right what is true

What is good for me and you

What is good for me and you

How come we can't get along

We tried so hard and it all goes wrong

It's hard to be wise and strong

When time is short and nights are long

When time is short and nights are long
