The Alan Parsons Project - Days are numbers

The ^Ctraveller is always leaving town He ^Cnever has the time to turn around And ^Fif the road he's taken isn't leading anywhere He ^G7seems to be completely unaware

The ^Ctraveller is always leaving home The ^Conly kind of life he's ever known When ^Fevery moment seems to be A race against the time There's ^G7always one more mountain left to climb

^CDays are numbers Watch the stars ^C We can only see so far Some^Fday, you'll know where you ^Gare Remember ^CDays are numbers Count the stars ^C We can only go so far One ^Fday, you'll know where you ^Gare

The ^Ctraveller awaits the morning tide He ^Cdoesn't know what's on the other side But ^Fsomething deep inside of him Keeps telling him to go He ^G7hasn't found a reason to say no

The ^Ctraveller is only passing through He ^Ccannot understand your point of view A^Fbandoning reality, unsure of what he'll find The ^G7traveller in me is close behind

^CDays are numbers Watch the stars ^C We can only see so far Some^Fday, you'll know where you ^Gare Remember ^CDays are numbers Count the stars ^C We can only go so far One ^Fday, you'll know where you ^Gare
