Verse 1:
He comes through the door on his phone, on his phone
He never puts that thing down
He'd love to walk out on that job that he hates
But he's gotta make a living somehow
Saturday night he walked in lookin' like
He felt like he was dead
I smiled as he sunk down into his chair
And I said

Chorus 1:
Hey there
Yeah I'm talking to you
When's the last time you had a good time
You're holding the weight of the world by a thread
but just let it go tonight
There's a whole wide world around you
So don't you close your eyes
Oh hey there, you there
Don't let it pass you by

Verse 2:
Stressed and depressed I walked in, walked in
Wrapped up in myself
It's been three weeks since we broke up
and a little bit of fun might help
But Saturday night, what's the point going out
without him by my side
I stared at myself in the mirror
and swallowed my pride
and said

Chorus 2:
Hey there
Yeah I'm talking to you
When's the last time you had a good time
You're holding on to your world by a thread
but just let it go tonight
Life's going on all around you
So open up your eyes
Oh hey there, you there
Don't let it pass you by

Bridge:
We work too hard, we think too hard
Too much on our minds
But if we're gonna live our lives
Now's the time

Chorus 3:
Hey there
Yeah I'm talking to you
When's the last time you had a good time
You're holding the weight of the world by a thread
but just let it go tonight
There's a whole wide world around you
Whatever you do, don't close your eyes
Oh hey there, you there
Don't let it pass you by

I said hey there, you there
Don't let it pass you by

Hey there, you there ohh oh
Hey there, you there oh oh ohh
Hey there, you there
Don't let it pass you by
