Runnin' out of patience
Runnin' out of time
Everybody's leaving
Scared to be the one left behind
Pour another coffee
Through the walls could be heard
Somebody's screaming
Without saying a word
Lift me higher
With wings I can fly
I'm too busy living
I got no time to die
Always in a hurry
A push comes to a shove
I'm motivated purely
By the things I really love
I go to church some days
I've fallen down on my knees
I'm getting a little worried
It seems the good lord has forgot all about me
Lift me higher
With wings I can fly
I'm too busy living
I got no time to die
Burn a candle
It'll lighten up your room
As I stand by this payphone
And I'm coming home, coming home soon
Coming home to ya
You get a little older
Oh, how you'll grow
You'll get a little closer
To the one's that you already know
Counting on my fingers
The times I've been up
We'll gather 'round 'cause I like to get down
Raise this glass and then we'll pour ourselves another cup
Lift me higher
With wings I can fly
I'm too busy living
I got no time, no time to die
Burn a candle
It'll lighten up your room
As I stand by this payphone saying
"I'm coming home, coming home soon"
I'm coming home to ya
