Take  off, both  your, shoes  and clothes, I'll  follow.
Undo,  corkscrew, drink  from the top of a broken  bottle.
Lately  we're running  out of time,  aren't  we?
Smoking, often,  and calling  out our guilty  pleasures,
Let's  keep, talking, anything  to stop  clockwatching.
Lately  we're running  out of time,  aren't  we?
Crazy  for running  all the time,  m-m-m-m-maybe.
Let's  forget we're running  out of time.
I'm  off like an aeroplane,
I'm  licking your postage  stamp again.
I'm  using my right  brain and I'm  praying the weight will crash.
Who  knew I'd come  so fast.
Well  so what if a two  pump chump can't last.
But  I made it to three,  and I foreclose  a five minute, fantasy.
I'll  surely fight making love  on economy.
No  jumping, conclusions,
I  don't think there's no  solution,
Let's  get, backwards,
And  forget our restless destination.
Let's  live in this moment  just this time,  could we?
Just  take one moment  of our time  maybe.
Let's  forget we running  out of time.
I'm  off like an aeroplane,
I'm  catching my second  wind  again.
I'm  using my left  brain
 And I'm righting  all my wrongs.
I'm  yearning to turn  you on.
I've  been working on getting  you off, so get on  board.
Well  how can I guess  by the subject of  the best predicate that's left
 unsaid when the matter  is too delicate.
 My loneliness  is evident.

 And its you,
 You're running  through my mind  and it makes me crazy cra-cra-crazy.
 (,,,)
 La la la
 La la la la la
 La la la (ooooooo, so amazing)
 La la la la la la
 La la la
 Laaaa oh oh
 Laaaaaa lo oh oh oh
Lady, dreamer, you  might be the soundest  sleeper,
Tonight, sleep  tight, and  build your nest upon  my shoulder.
