Turn 'round Time to be on the other way I know you're gonna try and bring me down Run 'round My feet on the other way Not gonna be in town when you're around No I won't be there in time No I won't be there in time This year Told myself it'd be a better one Try not to fall back onto the knife By now Told myself I'd be a better friend I'll meet you on the other side of life No I won't be there in time No I won't be there in time No I won't be there in time No I won't be there in time

You say that you want me here And I found the door And then you open up my hand Where you wanna go Can we start all our time over again Can we start all our time over again Make our way onto the roof Been awake for days In the shadow of the night I wanna fade away Can we start all our time over again Can we start all our time over again
