So afraid of living out my life 
Taking time, Oh I've got to think about it 
I know what's mine is slipping through my hands 
I can't stand, no to have to think about it 
Maybe I'm aching for something, waiting for something 
Don't want to compromise 
Sometimes I think I don't need it, no 


You think I'm afraid but I want to be wanted 
Take some time, you gotta think about it 
Just a caricature of a lover 
Just, just, just think about it when you get in your car 
You say I'm afraid and you're making me beg 
So, what you gonna do 
You gotta think about it 
I can see what I need, guaranteed, after all this time 

So, you gotta think about it 

Once again asking for permission 
I call you up, Oh I need to think about us 
You make me feel like a hungry little kid who thinks he's on a mission 
But this is real, Oh I need to think about it 

Maybe I'm asking for something, waiting for something 
Don't want to compromise 
Sometimes I think I don't need it, but now I've seen 



Take some time, make up your mind 
Always asking why, why, do I think about 
What I am, where I come from 
You don't realise that it's starting to pull me apart 

Take some time, make up your mind 
Always asking why, why do I think about 
What I am, where I come from 
You don't realise that it's starting to pull me apart 



Yes you gotta think about it 
Yes you gotta think about it
