| You’re on your own
 | 
| And what you need’s
 | 
| A little love and understanding, hee-hee-hee
 | 
| A little warmth to tell your soul
 | 
| A gentle bird that softly sings, hee-hee-hee-hee
 | 
| Each night my voice happens to sneak
 | 
| Through your transistor radio, ho-ho-ho
 | 
| I’m just a secret you can keep
 | 
| And no one ever needs to know
 | 
| You’re in that city far away
 | 
| I’m on the ship way out at sea
 | 
| You got some problems you can’t face
 | 
| So leave them behind, any place
 | 
| For out of sight is out of mind
 | 
| And in time, and in time, and in time, and in time, and in time
 | 
| You’ll find peace of mind
 | 
| Ho-ho-kay-ay (okay), good, good
 | 
| You’re room is like a desert isle
 | 
| You often filled with silent tears, hmm-hmm-hmm
 | 
| So grab your coat, put on a smile
 | 
| Go out and buy yourself some cheer, hee-hee-hee-hee
 | 
| Why sit there thinking of the past
 | 
| Recounting empty days gone by, hah-hah-hah
 | 
| When you should make each moment last
 | 
| It isn’t hard to do, just try
 | 
| Drink to the city far away
 | 
| To all the sailors 'way at sea
 | 
| All those problems you can’t face
 | 
| So leave them behind, any place
 | 
| For out of sight is out of mind
 | 
| And in time, and in time, and in time, and in time, and in time
 | 
| You’ll find peace of mind
 | 
| O-kay, hm-hm, (okay), good |
