Hey, time won't wait for you
Keeps on ticking away
Burning up every day
Ooh, time won't wait for you
Keeps on ticking away
Burning up every day
Verse 1
She was sleeping at the bus stop
(heaven away)
But her magic in her blue eyes
Told me she had left a daze
(left a daze)
So I have to check her wisdom
(and there was no doubt)
I told her I was sitting alone
and on crestfallen
Future's gonna catch me out
Chorus
She said, "Time won't wait for
you
So do all the things you wanted
to
Better hurry up, take it in your
stride
And use your resolution which
you've been supplied"
"And love won't change you, boy,
it's true
I can tell you till my face is
blue
Every second screams, listen to
your dreams
Ooh, 'cause you just can't stop
the clock"
Verse 2
On a brick wall I was banging
(over my head)
But the sweet rings on my feet
now
Where once they were made of
lead (sweet rings on my feet
now)
D'you hear the message in the
music (the music), I hear it too
You know, you got your history
in the making
Slowing down won't get you
through, no, no
Chorus
"Time won't wait for you
So do all the things you wanted
to
Better hurry up, take it in your
stride
And use your resolution which
you've been supplied"
"And love won't change you, boy,
it's true
I can tell you till my face is
blue
Every second screams, listen to
your dreams
Ooh, 'cause you just can't stop
the clock"
Bridge
Hey, time won't wait for you
Keeps on ticking away
Burning up every day
Ooh, time won't wait for you
Keeps on ticking away
Burning up every day
It keeps on, you know that it
keeps on
You know that it keeps on (it
keeps on)
It keeps on ticking, yeah
It keeps on (it keeps on), you
know that it keeps on
You know that it keeps on
Keeps on ticking, baby
Chorus
(Time won't wait for you)
So do all the things you wanted
to
You better hurry up, hey take it
in your stride
And use your resolution which
you've been supplied"
Love won't change you, boy, it's
true
I can tell you till my face is
blue
Every second screams, listen to
your dreams
Ooh, 'cause you just can't stop
the clock
