Another Charlie Brown

In the end we're just
the same you know
- pity people carrying the bags
with milk and daily bread
with the sun in the eyes
feeling the sweat drop in the neck

tryin' not to think
that maybe we missed a bargain
because we were one day too late
or one day too early
but today I had the money
today I had the time

and wondering if it's too much
to ask of life to be more than that
and that the treasure you found
is worth fighting for
and that the gift you received
is worth protecting from injure

hoping you'd like to kick the ball again
just to give it another round
hold the ball and give it
another round again
just like another Charlie Brown
thinking it's worth it, it must be.
