Around the world in just one day   Is way too fast, or so they say   But whenever we're together   We can easily go round twice      You're all I need and more   All I've been hoping for   But we both know it is   Not our turn this time      Up and down at rapid speed   Inside out I'm turned indeed   As soon as the command is yours   My whole world seems to change      You shine much brighter than   All the stars, but then again   Alas, it seems you came here   Just a bit too late      In another time, and in another place   Surely you'd be mine, but not here and now   I wish you would understand   You're ten years late   I wish you would understand   You're ten years late      And if you were the only rose   That stands in bloom amid all the weed   Still that won't help, and even if   In this world of willows, in which we live   You were the only giant   That won't change a single thing      In another time, and in another place   Surely you'd be mine, but not here and now   I wish you would understand   You're ten years late   I wish you would understand   You're ten years late
