Chain smoking cigarettes on the airplane You were waiting right there at my gate We had to pull of the highway Just to find a payphone When that line was busy though You know we just had to wait Seems like day after day goes by like nothing Is ever going to change Just like overnight it's like It ain't never going to be same Hitting what you're aiming for Forgetting what you missed Always seem to know for sure now is How we can't go on like this Day after day It's just like overnight Day after day It's just like overnight Walking outside to pick up the paper My telephone was ringing off of the wall I got your letter in my mail box But I think that I might have missed your call Seems like day after day goes by like nothing Is ever going to change Just like overnight it's like It ain't never going to be same Hitting what you're aiming for Forgetting what you missed Always seem to know for sure now is How we can't go on like this Day after day It's just like overnight Day after day It's just like overnight We've been killing our time now here forever And here and now as long as we'll ever be Hell I remember when you used to have to Walk all the way over Just to turn the channel On that goddamn TV Seems like day after day goes by like nothing Is ever going to change Just like overnight it's like It ain't never going to be same Hitting what you're aiming for Forgetting what you missed Always seem to know for sure now is How we can't go on like this Day after day It's just like overnight Day after day It's just like overnight
