I’D LIKE TO SPEND SOME TIME WITH YOU
IF YOU GOT NOTHING ELSE TO DO
WE COULD SIT AND TALK BY CANDLELIGHT
OR TAKE A WALK IN THE COOLING NIGHT
WHY DO WE KEEP OUR SELVES APART
LET’S GET TOGETHER A NEW START
WE WANT THE SAME THINGS OUT OF LIFE
TO BE HAPPY AND WELL WITHOUT A FIGHT
HAVE AN AWFUL LOT TO LOSE
MAKE UP YOUR MIND YOU’VE GOT TO CHOOSE
IF YOU COULD SEE THE WORLD FROM A SATELLITE
YOU WOULD KNOW WE’RE ALL BOOKED ON THE SAME FLIGHT
WE’LL HAVE TO CHANGE SOME WAY
BEFORE WE WASTE AWAY
DON’T WASTE ANOTHER DAY USE YOUR HEAD
FOR YOU COULD DIE TOMORROW THINK OF THAT INSTEAD
I’VE THOUGHT ABOUT IT HOW ABOUT YOU
YOU AIN’T GOT NOTHING ELSE TO DO
JUST OPEN YOUR EYES AND SEE THE LIGHT
BEFORE YOU’RE LOST IN LIES TONIGHT
WHEN WILL YOU TEAR YOUR THOUGHTS APART
AND GET TOGETHER A NEW START
WE COULD HAVE THE SAME THINGS OUT OF LIFE
BE HAPPY AND WELL AND NEVER FIGHT
WE’LL HAVE TO CHANGE SOME WAY
BEFORE WE WASTE AWAY
DON’T WASTE ANOTHER DAY USE YOUR HEAD
FOR YOU COULD DIE TOMORROW
THINK OF THAT INSTEAD
