Seems to me that you've been stranded   far too long   watchin' the sands of time   trickle away,   Won't you talk to me,   Tell me what's eatin' at 'cha   Even if you don't know what to say   You know that the time is right   To turn this thing around -   it's getting closer to you   Don't give up because pain is all   you've found      Lighten up 'cos help is on the way   Have a little faith in someone new   This is not a line I'm throwin' -   Lighten up 'cos help is on the way      You and me, walking down easy   streets together   Is a dream I cannot see slippin' away   Why don't you get to me   Over this distance you've created   And I'll put you in - set you free   You know the time is right   To turn this thing around -   you're getting closer to me   Don't give up because pain is all   you've found
