I see you in the morning, in every passerby
I can't escape the way I feel, I can't admit a lie
I see you in the afternoon, dream that you are here
The reason I have illusions, I can't seem to clear
Why aren't we the way we ought to be
Why won't it go our way
Why aren't we the way we ought to be
Please say
I see you in the evening, photos bring you to mind
Two dimensions don't make the grade, but it's all that I can find
Why aren't we the way we ought to be
Why won't it go our way
Why aren't we the way we ought to be
Please say
It doesn't matter what time of day, no, it doesn't matter when
I can't help but think of you, I say I'll stop and then
Why aren't we the way we ought to be
Why won't it go our way
Why aren't we the way we ought to be
Please say
