You stay just where you are While I'm away from home But I take you in my heart Just like a placebo, oh It's not enough, no To fill me up I need you by my side To speed the lonely nights Yeah, ooh Things go faster, faster with you... And though the thread is long That holds us together Well it's flexible and strong But it slows us down, oh Time flies, it's true But just when I'm with you Yeah, I need you by my side To speed the lonely nights Yeah, ooh Things go faster, faster oh As I try (as hard as I try) I can't seem to shake the feeling That you're all that I require And yeah, so I try (as hard as I try) To imagine that you're with me, oh Things go faster... Things go faster, faster with you Things go faster, faster with you
