In time, baby, I'll get you off my mind
Little by little, watch my love slow down
Whoa, you know it means to be alone
Today you're laughing, pretty baby, tomorrow you could be crying

Live for today, you leave tomorrow on its own
Got a little child, we should try to make it a home
But, yeah yeah yeah yeah, you know how it feels to be alone
Today you're laughing, pretty baby, tomorrow you just may be crying
Lord, you may be crying

There's an old saying, every dog has its day
Good dog's the one in the back fades away
But, oh yeah, you know what it means to be alone
Today you're laughing, pretty baby, tomorrow you could be crying, crying
