Sun came out in the dead of night

Angels singing, bathed in light

It gets hard 'cause I don't know why

Got so many questions, but no time

Every time I stop and wonder

Suddenly the day is gone and

The curtains close and it's over

And every time I draw them open

Sunday rolls into Monday

Just wanna take it slower

Moon came out in the afternoon

Birds were singing morning tunes

It gets hard 'cause I'm so confused

No time to think and so much to lose

Every time I stop and wonder

Suddenly the day is gone and

The curtains close and it's over

And every time I draw them open

Sunday rolls into Monday

Just wanna take it slower

Hours fly

From three to five to seven, eight and nine (Hours, hours, hours, hours)

I'll pray when the clock strikes ten

For more time (Hours, hours, hours, hours)

I'll take all the minutes and

I'll make a new day and

Name it after

The color of the rays

That leak in at morning

To break the dreamy haze

It feels so relentless

I need to make a change

Every time I stop and wonder

Suddenly the day is gone and

The curtains close and it's over

And every time I draw them open

Sunday rolls into Monday

Just wanna take it slower

Hours fly

From three to five to seven, eight and nine

I'll pray when the clock strikes ten

For more time

Just wanna take it slower
