You stay just where you are

While I'm away from home

But I take you in my heart

Just like a placebo, oh

It's not enough, no

To fill me up

I need you by my side

To speed the lonely nights

Yeah, ooh

Things go faster, faster with you

And though the thread is long

That holds us together

Well it's flexible and strong

But it slows us down, oh

Time flies, it's true

But just when I'm with you

Yeah, I need you by my side

To speed the lonely nights

Yeah, ooh

Things go faster, faster oh

As I try

I can't seem to shake the feeling

That you're all that I require

And yeah, so I try

To imagine that you're with me, oh

Things go faster

Things go faster, faster with you

Things go faster, faster with you
