| Time ticks, it ticks on by so slowly
|
| Waiting for you to see the light
|
| You don’t want to be around me
|
| But refuse to cut off the ties and take flight
|
| So now that you know
|
| Please don’t weigh me down
|
| Don’t fool around
|
| Understand me
|
| It’s time that I grow
|
| Please don’t weigh me down
|
| Don’t you play the clown
|
| Can’t you come around
|
| Don’t weigh me down
|
| Let’s make peace and go our ways calmly
|
| Let’s be friends and keep what once was happy
|
| We know it’s gone too far to save it
|
| Let it go that way some you’ll savour
|
| So now that you know
|
| Please don’t weigh me down
|
| Don’t fool around
|
| Understand me
|
| It’s time that I grow
|
| Please don’t weigh me down
|
| Don’t you play the clown
|
| Can’t you come around
|
| Don’t weigh me down
|
| I’d rather keep you here and have it like before
|
| But I see that cannot be
|
| We have to close the door
|
| So now that you know
|
| Please don’t weigh me down
|
| Don’t fool around
|
| Understand me
|
| It’s time that I grow
|
| Please don’t weigh me down
|
| Don’t you play the clown
|
| Can’t you come around
|
| Don’t weigh me down
|
| Don’t you think it’s better |
| If we go our separate ways
|
| Let it go, let it drift away
|
| It’s been too long, it’s hard to stay
|
| We need to leave this
|
| Let it fade |
