Take it to get some coffee
Early morning sun smile
Protects that place inside
Which hides so nice and quiet

Hit the library browsing shelves
Old fashioned need no Kindle
Stifle down that old need
Keep away from romance novels

STAYIN' BUSY THAT'S HOW I GET THROUGH
SECOND BY SECOND, MINUTE BY MINUTE WITHOUT YOU
TIME WILL TAKE THIS ACHE THEY SAY
AS TIME GOES ON HOUR BY HOUR, DAY BY DAY
STAYIN BUSY WEEK BY WEEK WITHOUT YOU

At the gym, folks ask me how I've been
Laughing through the small talk
Hides this inside crazed fragility
Work it out and walk the walk

Hide this sense of loneliness
And if I'd see you, my sunshine
I promised you, you'll never know
How much I still wish you were mine

STAYIN' BUSY THAT'S HOW I GET THROUGH
SECOND BY SECOND, MINUTE BY MINUTE WITHOUT YOU
TIME WILL TAKE THIS ACHE THEY SAY
AS TIME GOES ON HOUR BY HOUR, THEN BY DAY
STAYIN BUSY, WEEK BY WEEK WITHOUT YOU
