Lyrics

We wake up every morning
In the early eyes of dawn
Roll on out of bed, kiss
And put the coffee on
By 9 or 10 I feel as though
I've worked a day or two
I close my eyes and dream about
Spending time with you
Everyday I trade the simple things
For all their weight in gold
But they always leave me longing for
Something more that I can hold

Chorus

We've got the house
We always thought we needed
We've got everything the jones' would dream of
We give all we've got
From 9 to 9
And think we've got it right
We got time to make a living
Just no time to make a life

If we woke up tomorrow
And all of this was gone
I know we'd have everything
We need to carry on
More and more i'm missing
The way things used to be
When all we ever had in life
Was time for you and me
Still I trade the simple things for all their weight in gold
And still they leave me longing for
Something more that I can hold

Chorus

We've got the house
We always thought we needed
We've got everything the jones' would dream of
We give all we've got
From 9 to 9
And think we've got it right
We got time to make a living
Just no time to make a life
It seems this world's gone crazy
Seems we've lost all sense of time
We're all running a race
That has no finnish line

Chorus

We've got the house
We always thought we needed
We've got everything the jones' would dream of
We give all we've got
From 9 to 9
And think we've got it right
We got time to make a living
Just no time to make a life

Yah, time to make a living
Just no time to make a life
It's about time
Time to make a life
It's about you and me
