Can't Waste Time

Not a Second or Hour

Every feel

Every minute

With you

I am in it

On the surface we might make a mess

But deep down you know we mesh

There's no time for hesitation

We have to give it what we can

and there's no point in making waves

We've got less time to take a stand

I've got eyes for you

But man thus moves so fast

I guess I should have listened to those

That said time would never last

There's no time for hesitation

We have to give it what we can

and there's no point in making waves

We've got less time to take a stand

Urgent conversations

Turn into just another kiss

I don't want confrontation

Or a moment to be missed

There's no time for hesitation

We have to give it what we can

and there's no point in making waves

We've got less time to take a stand
