It's not time to make a change, just relax and 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 to, you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy
I was once like you are now, and I know that its not easy
to be calm, when you've found something going on
But take your time, think a lot, why think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not
CHORUS 1:
How can I try to explain? when I do he 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 I have to go away
and I know I have to go
(away) (away)
It's not time to make a change, just sit down and take it slowly
(I) (know) (I have)
You're still young, that's your fault, there's so much you have
(to make this)
to go through
(decision) (alone)
Find a girl, settle down, if you want to you can marry
(no)
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy
CHORUS 2:
(stay) (stay, stay)
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside
(why?) (must) (you go and make this de-
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it
cision) (alone?)
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
I know I have to go
