Verse 1
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 it's 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

Verse 2
How can I try to explain? 'cause
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
that I have to go away
I know I have to go

Verse 3
It's not time to make a change,
just sit down and take it slowly
(Away, away, away
You're still young, that's your
fault, there's so much you have
to go through
(I know I have to make ...)
Find a girl, settle down, if you
want, you can marry
( ... this decision alone ...)
Look at me, I am old, but I'm
happy
(No ...)
Verse 4
All the times that I've cried,
keeping all the things I knew
inside
(Stay, stay, stay
It's hard, but it's harder to
ignore it
(Why must you go and make ...)
If they were right, I'd agree,
but it's them they know, not me
( ... this decision alone ...)
Now there's a way, and I know
that I have to go away
I know I have to go
