From the recording SONGS FOR SALE 2 - WATCHING IT ALL GO BY
Bruce Rogers (writer, vocals, guitar, keyboard)
Lyrics
(Song Message: Don’t worry about what others have, just appreciate all that you have right now; It may be gone tomorrow)
We could be like the Smiths, the Thompsons and the Jones’s down the street
To live like that, everybody says it’s oh so sweet
But I’m waiting by the river, standin by the shore, - watchin it all go by
I don’t know what to give you, when you’ve seen it all before – watchin it all flow by
Ohhh, I could lie right here in your arms
If the whole world stopped spinnin tonight, it’s OK
Cause we’re all waiting for the bus
Every single one of us
But I could just sit here with you – and watch it all go by
You take what you get, and yet all you got is what you had
It aint over, and all-in-all you know it aint so bad
But you’re waiting by the river, standin by the shore, - watchin it all go by
I don’t know what to give you, when you’ve seen it all before – watchin it all flow by
Ohhh, I could lie right here in your arms
If the whole world stopped spinnin tonight, it’s OK
Cause we’re all waiting for the bus
Every single one of us
But I could just sit here with you – and watch it all go by
