Back in the beginning

The days flew by so fast

We hung on every moment

Like we thought it would be the last

And ever breath I drew

I drew it just for you

Now I don't know what to do

To keep you beside me



And I remember

Time was

We were never in a hurry

Never had to worry baby

Time was on our side

And I remember

Time was

The only thing we ever

Had to give one another

But now it seems

We're running out of time



Now we're always working

Or talking on the telephone

You're always going your way

And baby I go my own

Remember when we promised

We'd never let it come to this

But somehow we just missed

Our happy ever after



I've been so cold I've been unkind

I left you alone Selfish and blind

But baby I'm coming home Is there still time



... to make it up to you
