You have all my sympathy, you are down it’s plain to see
You’ve found out the world is tough, all too much, you’ve had enough
But all the hurdles in your way, and all the games that people play
See them off and on their way, show them you are here to stay
Forget tomorrow, forget your sorrow
Let me help you drive your demons away
Forget tomorrow, forget your sorrow
Let every minute count til your ultimate day!
You and I we fell in love, thunderbolt from up above
Struck the moment that we met, didn’t last, we lost the bet
Lost the loving, lost the need; if at first you don’t succeed,
Give it up or try again, work out how and why, and then
Forget tomorrow, forget your sorrow
Let me help you drive your demons away
Forget tomorrow, forget your sorrow
Let every minute count til your ultimate day
Life to me’s a mystery, soon the future’s history
Feeling high then feeling low, but bad times pass as well you know
Other people suffer too, longer term than me and you
Father Time will never cease, people making war not peace
Forget tomorrow, forget your sorrow
Let me help you drive your demons away
Forget tomorrow, forget your sorrow
Let every minute count til your ultimate day!
Let every minute count til your ultimate day!
