Drifting back to a time gone by   She was in my life   Now I'm watching her from my car   Someone bought her roller skates   God, am I too late?   Did somebody else take my place?      She's getting closer   And as I roll the window down   I spoke and then she turned around   And I said      There's something you should know   I could never let you go because I miss you so   Baby, when the time is right   Together we will fight to get you in my life      Looking back through misty eyes   But with a father's pride   I drive away in my car   It doesn't matter, baby, if it takes a year or two   Someday you're gonna find the truth   And I thought      There's something you should know   I could never let you go because I miss you so   Baby, when the time is right   Together we will fight to get you in my life      There's something you should know   I could never let you go because I miss you so   Baby, when the time is right   Together we will fight to get you in my life      There's something you should know   Baby, when the time is right
