Why is it so hard?
I try, and I try
and I try
and it's so hard
Why is it so hard?
Make hay while the sun shines
make hay while it shines
See where the time goes
See how it slips away

I put its little coat on
and tie its shoes
and send it out the door, off to school
I send it on its merry way to you
Whoosh! My heart goes out to you
Buup Buup-buup buup!
My heart goes out to you
Does it seem strange?
Mark this day
mark this day well
See where the time goes
See how it slips away

Tomorrow
tomorrow is another day
Tomorrow
tomorrow's another day
(God willing another day.)
I'll get up early
and I'll wake you up
I live in hope
I live in hope
Live in hope, too
Make hay while the sun shines
make hay while it shines
See where the time goes
See how it slips away
Mark this day
