JONATHAN:

Break of day, the dawn is here

Johnny's up and pacing

Compromise, or persevere?

His mind is racing

Johnny has no guide - Johnny wants to hide

Can he make a mark, if he gives up his spark?

Johnny can't decide


SUSAN:

Susan longs to live by the sea,

She's through with competition

Susan wants a family

Johnny's got a tough decision

Johnny has no guide


JONATHAN AND SUSAN:

Johnny wants to hide

Can he settle down - and still not drown?


JONATHAN:

Drown


JONATHAN AND SUSAN:

Johnny can't decide


MICHAEL:

Michael's gonna have it all

His luck will never end

Johnny's backed against the wall

Can he bend his dreams just like his friend?


JONATHAN SUSAN MICHAEL:

Johnny sees that

Susan's right Susan's right -

Ambition eats right Ambition eats right Johnny sees 

right

Through you Through you Through you


Michael doesn't see

Hold on tight Hold on tight Holds so tight

To the things that To the things that

Johnny feels are true Johnny feels are true Johnny 

feels are true

How can you soar

If you're nailed to the

Floor?

JONATHAN:

I want to write music. I want to sit down right now at 

the piano and write a song that people will listen to 

and remember, and do the same thing every morning for 

the rest of my life.
