A little bird once told me, don't press your luck
And a wise old man said, don't fret, your time will come
But I can't wait that long
No I can't wait that long for you
I watch the traces of the night one by one cross your face
Another hour or two the morning comes, and you will awake
But I can't wait that long
No I can't wait that long for you
See the words I've got to say, well I need to say them now
Before the moment disappears in the lazy stumbling haze of the day
And you walk away not knowing how I feel about you
Hear the sound of the key slowly turning in the lock
Door is closing, your shoes coming off
And you're walking now towards me
With a smile on your face
But I can't wait that long
No I can't wait that long for you
See the words I've got to say, well I need to say them now
Before the moment disappears in the lazy stumbling haze of the day
And you walk away not knowing how I feel about you
See the words I've got to say, well I need to say them now
Before that moment disappears in the lazy stumbling haze of the day
And you walk away not knowing how I feel about you
