[Verse 1]
Time just keeps on slipping away
I can feel the hands of the clock
Tick, tick, ticking away
But it's nothing more than my mind slowly giving away
We've got so much time to think about yesterday
Just thinking on yesterday

[Chorus]
And she says, "Stop! You know you lift me up dancing
You know how to find me, you take me away
What's your idea of happiness and your heroes in your life?
Now, there's something I want to tell you before you walk away"

[Verse 2]
Time brings me to another day
Whether I'm ready or not
Tick, tick, ticking away
But it's nothing more than my mind
It's ticking in my head, won't stop slowly giving away
We've got so much time just thinking of yesterday

[Chorus]
And she says, "Stop! You know you lift me up dancing
You know how to find me, you take me away
What's your idea of happiness and your heroes in your life?
Now, there's something I want to tell you before you walk away"
[Bridge]
I don't know what this happiness will bring
But I'll never let you down
All these thoughts will make you feel king
So lay me down, down

[Chorus]
And she says, "Stop! You know you lift me up dancing
You know how to find me, you take me away
What's your idea of happiness and your heroes in your life?
Now, there's something I want to tell you before you walk away"
