Can you hold the line can I call you back if I don't do this I'll get the sack
This job is almost back on track and then I'll be home soon
She thought he said œI won't be long? she waited up, guess he was wrong
Once again the same old song just a different tune


A game he'd play and never win juggled ˜round and slotted in
She said he spread himself too thin but this was all he knew
All his friends were left behind while up the ladder he would climb
He'd always say œso little time so much to do?


He's too busy making money when he could be making time
A winner doesn't have to be the first to cross the line
Slow and steady, take it in, look at what you'll find
So little time, so much to do
So much to do, so little time


Not right now I'm running late, I'm sorry but you'll have to wait
Nothing but a twist of fate would change his mind to see
Little things in life he missed, one more dance, one more kiss
One more chance to reminisce, the way it used to be


REPEAT CHORUS

No one really was surprised The fast lane made no compromise
Hit him right between the eyes how could he be so blind
Days remaining numbered few, a look at her to see what's true
He whispers low œso much to do, So little time?


I've been too busy making money when I could be making time
A winner doesn't have to be the first to cross the line
Slow and steady, take it in, look at what you'll find
So little time, so much to do
So much to do, so little time
So little time, so much to do
So much to do, so little time
