[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 & Susan]
Johnny wants to hid
Can he settle down
And still not drown?

[Jonathan]
Drown

[Jonathan & 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
Ambition eats right through you
Michael doesn't see why
Johnny holds so tight
To the things that
Johnny feels are true

Johnny has no guide
(Johnny has no guide)
Johnny wants to hide
(Johnny wants to hide)
How can you soar
If your nailed to the floor?
Johnny can't decide

[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

[Jonathan, Susan & Michael]
Johnny has no guide
(Johnny has no guide)
Johnny wants to
Johnny wants to hide
How do you know
When it's time to let go?

Johnny can't decide
(Johnny can't decide)
Johnny can't decide
(Johnny can't decide)
Johnny can't decide
(Johnny can't decide)
Decide, decide
Decide, decide

[Jonathan]
Johnny can't decide
