Under a cover of a fallen night
You turn around to get
One last look at your life

The girls in the window
Smiling, waving, sad
And your heart is breaking
But there's no time for that
Oh, no
There's no time for that

You grew up
And found your place in life
Had a couple of kids and a wife

You see them in the window
Smiling, waving, sad
And you stick to what you know
There's no time for that
Oh, no
There's no time for that

Now you're as sweet as anyone can be
You always got good news for us to see

When you catch your own reflection
Smiling, waving, sad
It escapes your perception
'Cause there's no time for that

When I travel to see you
I'm always so glad
I'll take you any way you want to
'Cause there just goes my dad
