I know where Tony lies
Flat out with hopeless eyes
Watching the yellow sky through tears
I know what Tony can't
He cannot stop his dance
Real life don’t stand a chance
Against his dreams
Minute by minute by minute
I feel the clock tick
Helpless and guilty and wary I check
And hear he called in sick
Every morning he loves me
Every night he lets me go
I know why Tony cries
Says he's waited all his life for me
But I can't just step into his dream
I know where Tony flies
Hoping his veins run dry
Arm in a bucket by his bed
Minute by minute by minute
I feel the clock tick
Through the quiet telephone line
I think I hear the falling red drops click
Flat out with hopeless eyes
Watching the yellow sky through tears
I know what Tony can't
He cannot stop his dance
Real life don’t stand a chance
Against his dreams
Minute by minute by minute
I feel the clock tick
Helpless and guilty and wary I check
And hear he called in sick
Every morning he loves me
Every night he lets me go
I know why Tony cries
Says he's waited all his life for me
But I can't just step into his dream
I know where Tony flies
Hoping his veins run dry
Arm in a bucket by his bed
Minute by minute by minute
I feel the clock tick
Through the quiet telephone line
I think I hear the falling red drops click
