To act, or to wait? Well I pottered around, but made no clay To spend, or to save? Well I blew it all, but kept the change How long will it be till I'm alone Left in the trenches? How long will it be till I'm alone Or you throw in the towel? How long will it be till I'm alone Left in the trenches? How long will it be till I'm alone Or you throw in the towel? To reverse, or rearrange Well I gave you my word but you gave it back again And each word a more hopeful, direct antonym But I still had the old phrase running through my brain How long will it be till I'm alone Left in the trenches? How long will it be till I'm alone Or you throw in the towel? How long will it be till I'm alone Left in the trenches? How long will it be till I'm alone Or you throw in the towel? You say never You say never You say never You say never I will keep on searching for you Like a homingbird And I say... I dance in time Yeah I dance in time I dance hand in hand With the one who won't let go of me I dance hand in hand With the one who won't let go of me I dance hand in hand With the one who won't let go of me
