One of these days...

One of these days you’re gonna wind up dead.

And that’s when you’ll start wondering what it was they said
When you sang and danced
And tried as hard as you could.
But was it enough?
Or did you stray?
Led by the temptations along the way?

Was the love of another too much to resist?

The constant climb,
The constant trying, for you was not enough.
Or was it too much for you to bare?

You left one for another,
But now, you’re not sure,
And there’s no time to recover
From the pain you’ve caused to her.

So you’re singing and dancing still,
But who’s listening now?
I don’t think anyone will.

You tried too hard,But not hard enough.
It’s over now,
You’re out of luck
