It's not time to make a change
Just relax take it easy
You're still young that's your fault
There's so much you have to know

Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me I am old
But I'm happy

I was once like you are now
And I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found
Something going on
But take your time think a lot
Think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not

How can I try to explain?
When I do it turns away again
It's always been the same
Same old story
From the moment I could talk
I was ordered to listen
Now there's a way, and I know
That I have to go away
and I know, I have to go

(Instrumental)

I was once like you are now
And I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found something going on
But take your time think a lot
Think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not

(Vox 2 -adlib*)
And all the times, that I've cried
Keeping all the things I knew inside
And it's hard
But it's harder to ignore it

If they were right I'd agree
But it's them they know
Not me now there's a way
and I know that I have to go away
And I know I have to go


*Vox2 - adlib
Stay, stay, stay
Why must you go and leave
This decision you'd better know
No you don't have to go away
Don't have to go
