It’s About Time
Waiting for a long time or waiting for a bus
Feels a bit like waiting for you
I never know if it has come and gone or perhaps it’s a block away
Feels a bit like waiting for you
So you look at me and you say "Well hey, it's about time"
And I say "No, no it's about love"
And you look at me and you say "Well hey, it's about time"
And I need to look back at you and say "It's about love"
Longing for a short time or longing for a train out
Feels a bit like longing for you
I never know if I should sit up all night or take in a sleeping car
Feels a bit like longing for you
So you look at me and you say "Well hey, it's about time"
And I say "No, no, it's about love"
And you look at me and you say "Well hey, it's about time"
And I need to look back at you and say "It's about love"
Holding on to no time or holding on to life
Feels a bit like holding on to you
I never know if I should ride it to the bell or give it to the clown
Feels a bit like holding on to you
So you look at me and you say "Well hey, it's about time"
And I say "No, no it's about love"
And you look at me and you say "Well hey, it's about time"
And I need to look back at you and say "It's about love"
So I look at you and I say "OK then, it's about time"
And you say "No, no, it's about love"
So I look at you and I say "OK then, it's about time"
And you need to look back at me and say "It's about love"
And you look back at me and you say "Oh darling, it's about love"
And I look at myself and I say "Well hey, it's about time."
