Every time that I look in the mirror
All these lines in my face gettin' clearer
The past is gone

It goes by like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way?
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay
Isn't that the way?
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay

I know, nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win

Half my life's in books' written pages
Lived and learned from fools and from sages
You know it's true
All the things come back to you

Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter n' sing for the tear
Sing with me if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away

Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter n' sing for the tear
Sing with me if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away
Dream on, dream on, dream on
Dream yourself a dream comes true
Dream on, dream on, dream on
And dream until your dream comes true
Dream on, dream on, dream on
Dream yourself a dream comes true
Dream yourself a dream comes true

I know, nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win
