BACKUP SINGERS: Hey, time won't wait for you Keeps on ticking away Burning up every day
She was sleeping at the bus stop Heaven away But our magic in her blue eyes Told me she had left her daze So I have to chat her wisdom And there was no doubt I told her I was sitting lonely on request fault Future's gonna catch out
CHORUS: She said, 'Time won't wait for you.' So do all the things you wanted to Better hurry up, take it in your stride Use your resolution which you've been sublime And love won't change you boy, it's true I can tell you till my face blue Every second screams, listen to your dreams Oh, cause you just can't stop the pop
On a brick that I was banging, over my head But the sweet rings on my feet now Where they once were made of lead Do you hear the message in the music now I hear it too You know, you got your history in the making now Slowing down won't get you through, no no
