| Listen sister have you heard about the holiday | |
| Were it the other day | |
| I fell asleep, now she's gone away | |
| So won't you tell me all the secrets | |
| that I need to know | |
| Before I go and throw it all away | |
| Before I go and throw it all away | |
| Maybe there's a couple things that I should have done | |
| Or I could have done | |
| Well I don't know, but she'd still be here today | |
| If I just changed my old perspectives or my attitude | |
| Or the things I do | |
| Well maybe she'd have never gone away | |
| Chorus (done twice): | |
| I am done, take me home [al. & Chuck] | |
| She gave up a long time ago [Rob] | |
| Take the time, take the time [al. & Chuck] | |
| It's a shame he's the last to know [Rob] | |
| So I'll just sing another song about the love and loss | |
| to get my point across | |
| Bestowing words of wisdom on the way | |
| Unless you'd rather hear another one about the rain | |
| or the singer's pain | |
| and the important things that he has to say | |
| Chorus (twice) | |
| Bridge x 4: Rob on lead | |
| (parts are sung simultaneously) | |
| They were happy in another place | |
| (Turn back the hands of time [Al and Chuck] ) | |
| Always thought they'd get by [all] | |
| Woke one morning, and he heard her say | |
| (Turn back the hands of time [Al and Chuck] ) | |
| Why'd I waste all of my time. [all, only Rob on last refrain] | |
| instrumental (Chuck solo) | |
| Bridge x 4 | |
| Verse 1 | |
| Multiple repeats of Chorus |
