So much chaos that I can't get through
So much time none for me and you
Love the way you can't stay late
Take you home before daylight breaks

And all I know
Is one day this will all pay off
And all I know
Is we pay the dues while they watch the clock
We pay the dues while they watch the clock

Love you now like I loved you then
Every day a new friend
Hold you close until time amends
The time we have till the time we spend

And all I know
Is one day this will all pay off
And all I know
Is we pay the dues while they watch the clock
We pay the dues while they watch the clock

La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la

And all I know
Is we pay the dues while they watch the clock
We pay the dues while they watch the clock
We pay the dues while they watch the clock
We pay the dues while they watch the clock

La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la
