Hold on tight and everything will be all right
I never really felt this way before

Don't let go
There's still time for us so let's take it slow
I wish that I could give you so much more

(La, la-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)

Far away
And maybe we'll be coming back someday
Together in the end, to sing with you again

(Ah, ah-da-da-da-da-da-da)

I never really felt this way before

Don't be sad
There was a time and place for what we had
If there was just another chance for me to sing to you

(La, la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
There's never enough time for the ones that you love
(La, la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
There's never enough time for the ones that you love
(La, la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
There's never enough time for the ones that you love
