C               Em               D   Em
Waiting for the time to pass you by
C                 Em                      D    Em
Hope the winds of change will change your mind

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

We can stay forever young
C                  Em
Living on my sofa, drinking rum and cola
D                     Em
Underneath the rising sun
C              D                G   Em
I could give a thousand reasons why

All you have to do is stay a minute

The clock is ticking, so stay

All you have to do is wait a second

Your hands on mine

The clock is ticking, so stay

Won't admit what I already know

I've never been the best at letting go
