Lyrics

[01:27.10] Julie's got the word today she lost her job just one last pay
[01:33.70] Life don't come easy anymore
[01:37.73]
[01:39.66] Still strugglin' on by herself got a picture of jimmy there on the shelf
[01:46.37] And she looks at him and says why did we let it go
[01:51.95]
[01:53.95] I know that sometimes baby we didn't see things eye-to-eye
[02:00.37] But i got just one question did we have to say goodbye?
[02:08.19] Just like prisioners in paradise
[02:11.79] Still far from heaven's door
[02:15.00] We had it all but still we wanted more
[02:20.30]
[02:22.04] Now i realize that i can't turn back the future here to stay
[02:29.75] But hey we're just children of tomorrow
[02:34.06] Hangin' on to yesterday
[02:36.99]
[02:50.07] Jimmy still recalls the night when he took his guitar and headed on out
[02:57.07] To find the big time that was his dream
[03:01.14]
[03:02.57] He gave up his past and made it alright
[03:05.99] But there's something missin' in his heart tonight
[03:10.57] Sometimes what you want ain't what you need
[03:16.13] He misses drivin' down to the lake at night
[03:19.43] Holdin' his baby in his arms so tight
[03:23.76] Ain' t it hard to find illusions when you're livin' in a memory
[03:31.09] Just like prisioners in paradise
[03:34.92] So close but yet so far
[03:38.04] There will come a time no matter who you are
[03:43.71]
[03:44.83] When you ask yourself was it right or wrong
[03:48.67] For me to turn away,
[03:52.61] But hey we're just children of tomorrow hangin' on to yesterday
