All we need is time, 'cause we're moving faster with no control
So freeze the moment and keep to the edge of your seat, I'll be the boy to sweep you off your feet
Oh, don't throw your life away
I'll be the one to make you feel alive
Oh, don't turn your back
'cause when I give, I'm gonna give it right
And I'm never short of love
When I give, I'm gonna give it right
I'm never short of love
When I give, I'm gonna give it right
Just look at the way we move
Now can you see what you take
Away from everything
Away from everything, where no eyes can see
(I let you in and showed you who I wanted to be)
How many times it took to get the words out right?
('cause we got lost, we found comfort in the night)
Not knowing which way to go
So we'll just keep on walking slow
And this city is full of strangers
But you're one that I will remember
Now I see that I was chasing waves
Hoping for better days
Let's strike the match, and let it burn away
Away from everything
Away from everything, where no eyes can see
(I let you in and showed you who I wanted to be)
How many times it took to get the words out right?
('cause we got lost, we found comfort in the night)
Oh, you're throwing your life away
Throwing your life away
I'm learning to think fast on my feet
'cause it's not too late
I still believe we'll make it through the same
And if it means anything
You're turning your back from a perfect world
