Another Day On Earth

from Be Well! by Gabriel Coleman

/

lyrics

i'd borrow an hour from the morning
to work a little later into the evening
we could split thirty minutes for lunch
but i'd probably end up wanting the whole thing

it's barely march and the trees in the park are blooming
i never thought that collapse would feel so soothing

but time knows something that money never learned
that nothing can be given and nothing can be earned
time knows something that money never learned
that everything is borrowed and everything returns

and i would give anything for another day on Earth

i steal half an hour from work
to go walking by the river
to remind myself
that this island is surrounded by water

it's barely march and i'm standing in the sun and sweating
spending all of my time worried about time i'm spending

but time knows something that money never learned
that nothing can be given and nothing can be earned
time knows something that money never learned
that everything is borrowed and everything returns

and i would give anything for another day on Earth

the Earth goes round like a bicycle wheel
the calendar doesn't care how i feel
and each and every forth february
we get another day on Earth
