Longer days will never pay Watching them go down no matter what i say Does what i want to do Make the timelessness ok Come along come along Late at night through the smoke and the light I strain my eyes to see you If i decide just to put it aside I hope you'll be there too The boys aren't lost they're trying to find A way to make it through On a song on a song If you would stay i could float right out this window And it means everything whether my world is up or down It won't be long before i never land again And all i want to know is you're around All i want to know is you're around Is it a sign i'm in front of the line I walk the plank in spirit The swallowed time is encroaching on mine I need you to steer me through it If i look back with you I would not want to undo it Come along come along If you would stay i could float right out this window And it means everything whether my world is up or down It won't be long before i never land again And all i want to know is you're around A decade wasted If selfish or chastened Do i seem complacent to you A lifetime away If you would stay i could float right out this window And it means everything whether my world is up or down It won't be long before i never land again And i hope that you'll be waiting oh you'll be waiting Yeah i hope that you'll be waiting on the ground.
