If I had the time

I would run away with you

To a perfect world

We'd suspend all that is duty or required.



Late last night you cried

And I couldn't come to you

But on the other side

You and I, inseparable and walking.



Yeah, oh woe.



If we could steal away

Like jugglers and thieves

But we could come and go

Oh, and talk of Michaelangelo.



Oh woe.



If we had the time (we had the time)

We had the time.



The day you looked at me

And it was on your mind

The world is no one's dream

We will never ever find the time.



Oh woe.



If we had the time

I would run away with you

To a perfect world

(To a perfect world).
