Hey Now Lyrics

Living out of a can and a packet

You fell into this routine racket

Your daytime friends were always on the go

And the night shift staff just didn't want to know

Woah-O-Oh

It meant a lot to have some independence

But you didn't plan for it to be this way

You thought you'd have a family to look after

Even now you hope this will happen one day

It'll be worth the while when it comes along

Give me a smile cos it's going to work for you

Hey now don't you know - your life's on the move

It might not happen today but it's true

Hey now wait a bit there's plenty to do

It won't just happen if you're standing still

Here comes another day, it's yours to take, hey now

Take a good look at what you've got already

The flip side's not worth a single penny

Don't look sad this will change one day

You might feel that time is running out for you but

It'll be worth the while when it comes along

Give me a smile cos it's going to work for you

Hey now don't you know, your life's on the move

It might not happen today but it's true

Hey now wait a bit, there's plenty to do

It won't just happen if you're standing still

Here comes another day, it's yours to take, hey now

Little by little you solve life's riddles

It teaches us the things we all need to know

You might not feel like a winner at all

But don't you see the signs yet

It'll be worth the while when it comes along

Give me a smile cos it's going to work for you

For you

It might not happen today but it's true

Hey now wait a bit - there's plenty to do

It won't just happen if you're standing still
