  • Songwriters: Brian Patrick Murray, Joey Babick
I haven't really got a word to say
I guess I'll have to find some other way
Still beats killin' time with someone like you
She said "I'm sorry but you know it's true"

You know I didn't know that I was out of line
Until I had a word with Madeleine
Now she's killin' time with someone like me
She said "There's no place that we'd rather be"

It's here, it's all we ever wanted and more
It's here, it's all we ever wanted and more

Coast-to-coast and burning daylight
Under the same sun
Sure takes a hard day's work to get the job done
We've got it alright
Caught in the motion
Burning daylight 'til the flame's all gone

Better listen what your mother say
The sun is brighter now than yesterday
Daddy said "Son, you've grown up just like me,
But when you're older, then, you just might see"

You know I didn't know that I was out of line
Until we had a word with Madeleine
But, now she's killin' time with someone like me
And there's still no place that we'd rather be

And it's here, it's all we ever wanted and more
It's here, it's all we ever wanted and more

Coast-to-coast and burning daylight
Under the same sun
Sure takes a hard day's work to get the job done
We've got it alright
Caught in the motion
Burning daylight 'til the flame's all gone

There must be something in the water
Or in this poison,
That takes a whole wide world to get the song sung
Singin' of the good life,
Kiss of a fine wine,
The best things take time

It's right there for the taking Mary, I know
It's right there for the taking Mary, I know
