Another day almost gone
 It won’t be long ‘till you are out of here and you will soon be home
 Just thank God it’s Friday night
 You know a little bar where you can disappear quite out of sight
 
 You don’t laugh like you should
 You don’t smile like you should
 This life has torn the ground from underneath your feet
 And I can’t reach you
 You’re down too deep
 
 Your wife she says that there’s no chance
 To re-discover all those happy days of love and true romance
 It’s the same for all her friends
 It’s the children now that matter and you’ve got to meet the ends
 
 So you will watch the children grow
 And you will justify the sacrifice but you’ll never let it show
 It’s just a heavy hand of fate
 You know that dreams are made for dreamers, you just realised too late
