Winter came so soon
And summer never happened
We're players on a stage
With roles already scripted
We're working for a wage
We're living for today
On a giant piece of dirt
Spinning in the universeI can hear your cry out there
And I can feel you close to meOne day at a time
Inch by inch
For every kiss
On lovers' lips
For all lost souls
Who can't come home
Friends, not here
We shared our tearsAnd all I wanna do
Is make the right impression
The instrument of truth
A soldier with no weapon
I care so much for you
I crawled a thousand miles
Through deserts full of sand
My love in every landI can feel your cry out there
And I can feel you everywhereOne day at a time
Inch by inch
For every kiss
On lovers' lips
We're all lost souls
Who can't come home
The Friend's not here
We shared our tearsOne day at a time
Inch by inch
For every kiss
On lovers' lips
For all lost souls
Who can't come home
Friends, not here
We shed our tearsI can feel your presence here
Tender softly through the airOne day at a time
Inch by inch
For every kiss
On lovers lips
We're all lost souls
We can't come home
