Right on Time

I know it's been a long, long year
God forbid you listen to me now
I may have laid the pressure on good, but since that day
I'll never ask again

It's funny, it has come right down to this
I have to steal my time, 'cause you won't give it up for free
I've been talking to the moon all night, but the stars won't say nothing to me
And though i feel it's easy for a man to grow up
Much harder for a man to grow out
You may not appear, but I'm standing here my God
I'll never ask you

Where have you been?
You could have told me just
Where have you been?
'Cause you know me you know
I won't ask why
They always told me you'd be right on my time
But we're coming around

I know you're kind of busy right now
But it's been one day, but I haven't heard your call
I climbed a mountain just to get a better view of you
Well, no, and I'll never ask again

And it's crazy that we just can't feel the time
And lay down for a while
And let life catch your eye
I've been relaxing with the wind all day
But the sky won't open up for me
And though I feel it's easy for a man to stand tall
Much harder for a man to simmer down
You may not appear, but I'm standing here my God
I'll never ask you

Where have you been?
You should have told me just
Where have you been?
And if you know me, you know
I won't ask why
They always told me you'd be right on my time
On we go

On we go (oh-oh-oh)
Far away

If you give me just a minute of your day
I see now why you choose to stay away
Up here life seems more like living
And living mirrors love
And love just leaves me breathless
On we go
Far away
On we go
Far away

I'll never ask you
Where have you been?
You should have told me just
Where have you been?
And then you know me, you know
I won't ask why
They told me you'd be right on my time
Yeah, so when I'm coming around

You act like you don't know me
You act like you can't see me
I just wish you would show me
That you'll be right on my time

You act like you don't know me
You act like you can't see me
I just wish you would show me
That you'll be right on my time

Right on my time
Right on my time
Right on my time

Well, here we are
Beautiful, beautiful night, I wasn't sure we were gonna get
But then, I saw quite a few people sitting out in front
And I said "They've been here since early in the morning"
And if it's the last thing we do, we're gonna play
But we got lucky, and here we are
Chicago, beautiful weather
Let's play some songs
