You're getting better, better

At guessing letters, letters

I'm writing with my fingers now

And we're just watching, watching

Dust on the curtain, curtain

Illuminated, falling down

Now we got the doors closed and you're telling me

You are mine and you'll go anywhere with me

Tell me, can we stay right here and never leave?

I could go on and on

But time is not on our side

Waiting for the light

Night after night

Night after night, and I know

I will slip away

Day after day

Day after day till we're old

All I wanna do is lie next to you

Lie next to you and stay close, whoa

But time is not on our side

Looking in your eyes

Night after night

Night after night and I see

Where I gotta stay

Day after day

Day after day to find peace

All I gotta do is lie next to you

Lie next to you and just breathe, whoa

But time is not on our side

We never wake up, wake up

We only stay up, stay up

And let the seconds chase us down

But we're learning, learning

That nothing's certain, certain

So can we stop the clock for now?

Now we got the doors closed and you're telling me

You are mine and you'll go anywhere with me

Tell me, can we stay right here and never leave?

I could go on and on

But time is not on our side

Waiting for the light

Night after night

Night after night, and I know

I will slip away

Day after day

Day after day till we're old

All I wanna do is lie next to you

Lie next to you and stay close, whoa

But time is not on our side

Looking in your eyes

Night after night

Night after night and I see

Where I gotta stay

Day after day

Day after day to find peace

All I gotta do is lie next to you

Lie next to you and just breathe, whoa

But time is not on our side

No, oh no

'Cause time is not on our side

Eh, I could go on and on

But time is not on our side

Waiting for the light

Night after night

Night after night, and I know

I will slip away

Day after day

Day after day till we're old

All I wanna do is lie next to you

Lie next to you and stay close, whoa

But time is not on our side

Looking in your eyes

Night after night

Night after night and I see

Where I gotta stay

Day after day

Day after day to find peace

All I gotta do is lie next to you

Lie next to you and just breathe, whoa

But time is not on our side

Yes time is not on our side
