Waiting for the time to pass you by

Hope the winds of change will change your mind

I could give a thousand reasons why

And I know you, and you've got to



Make it on your own, but we don't have to grow up

We can stay forever young

Living on my sofa, drinking rum and cola

Underneath the rising sun

I could give a thousand reasons why

But you're going, and you know that



All you have to do is stay a minute

Just take your time

The clock is ticking, so stay

All you have to is wait a second

Your hands on mine

The clock is ticking, so stay
