Isn't It Time - John Waite

After it's all been said The music spinning in our head Can't forget the feeling of The magic of that summer in love Ooh, I wanna take you there Do you wanna turn back the pages Memories and photographs The world has changed And yet the game Is still the same Isn't it time we danced the night away How about doing it just like yesterday? Every time I think of you And all of those things we used to do Remember those nights we spent just you and I Little did we know how the time would fly Isn't it time, oh-oh-oh Isn't it time Whoa The good times never have to end And now's the time to let them happen again And we can have ourselves a blast The good times they, aren't only in the past Isn't it time we danced the night away How about doing it just like yesterday? Every time I think of you And all of those things we used to do Remember those nights we spent just you and I Little did we know how the time would fly Isn't it time, oh-oh-oh Isn't it time Whoa And as the sun goes down We raise our glass to kindness To all the good times we shared Isn't it time we get ready and then Isn't it time we go steady again Isn't it time we danced the night away How about doing it just like yesterday? Every time I think of you And all of those things we used to do Remember those nights we spent just you and I Little did we know how the time would fly Isn't it time, oh-oh-oh Isn't it time Isn't it time we danced the night away How about doing it just like yesterday? Every time I think of you And all of those things we used to do Remember those nights we spent just you and I Little did we know how the time would fly Isn't it time

If I spoke in words you didn't understand Wouldn't that make me a better man Elocution class to lend a hand Get me a self-improvement plan I don't know, it seems to me Things I do best come easily I don't feel the need to say to you I'm better 'cause it isn't true Exquisite verse to higher the tone Performed in phrases not my own To hide the truth to I'll tell a lie With pictures from another's eye I don't know, it seems to me Things I do best come easily I don't feel the need to say to you I'm better 'cause it isn't true If I sport the latest cut of cloth Would you all assume I'd got some style And wear my hair just long enough To turn the fashion heads for a while A sports car sexy, slimline, fast Quick enough to hide my past Rich enough to open doors I never could unlock before I don't know, it seems to me Things I do best come easily I don't feel the need to say to you I'm better 'cause it isn't true If I sport the latest cut of cloth Would you all assume I'd got some style And wear my hair just long enough To turn the fashion heads for a while A sports car sexy, slimline, fast Quick enough to hide my past Rich enough to open doors I never could unlock before I don't know, it seems to me Things I do best come easily I don't feel the need to say to you I'm better 'cause it isn't true 'Cause it isn't true 'Cause it isn't true 'Cause it isn't true

"It is what it is" That's what you say Roll over now It's not your day No need to kneel down No need to pray Well, if it is what it is Then I've got to say Make it what it isn't Shut up! Let's make it what it isn't Come on! I'm not up for this Tell me when you stopped trying Tell me just when? That you decided to let Life do you in Now you're complicit in your Very own bad dream If it is what it is Then I'm gonna scream Make it what it isn't Shut up! Let's make it what it isn't Come on! I'm not up for this I'm a fighter and survivor I know how to float Sun is dimmin' and keep on swimmin' Kiss goodbye the boat Find an island and keep on smilin' Makin' a new world You don't know what you can do Until you make it so I'm not up for this I'm not up for this Make it what it isn't Shut up! Let's make it what it isn't Come on! I'm not up for this I'm not up for this

It isn't right for you to hurt me It isn't right to make me blue It isn't right to take my kisses And give them to somebody new It isn't right for you to promise A million dreams that can't come true It isn't right to start a flame Deep within my heart Then let it go out like a light It isn't right It isn't right for you to promise A million dreams that can't come true It isn't right to start a flame Deep within my heart Then let it go out like a light It isn't right

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone It's not warm when she's away Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And she's always gone too long Anytime she goes away I wonder this time where she's gone I wonder if she's gone to stay Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And this house just ain't a home Anytime she goes away Oh yeah I know I know I know I know I know I know it Every single day I know I know I know I know Ain't no sunshine when she's gone Only darkness everyday yeah Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And this house just ain't a home Every time she goes away Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And she's always gone too long Every time she goes away I know I know I know I know I know I know Every single time she goes away I know I know I know I know Miss her every single day I know I know I know I know I know I know I can't leave that thing alone There ain't no sunshine when she's gone Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And she's always gone too long Every time she goes away (goes away) Oh yeah Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And this house just ain't a home Every time she goes away (goes away Oh yeah Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And she's always gone too long Every time she goes away

There was a time When I thought I knew Everything about This great big world Until I met you Into my life Like a brand new sun Now I find my home Inside your eyes Wherever you are It's hard to say it Cause I hide things so good But you make me say it Like only you could I love you More than any man could ever say I need you Baby let me count the ways And I'll be here I believe in everything you do So how did I get by without you For the longest time Playing games of solitaire Taking my wine But now I'm with you baby And I can dream out loud You're as pretty as a picture And you make me so proud It's hard to say it Cause I hide things so good But you make me say it Like only you could I love you More than any man could ever say I need you Baby let me count the ways And I'll be here There? s nothing in this world I couldn't do So how did I get by without you You love me Now I know that I'm the lucky guy You've got me And there's nowhere I can hide So I'll be here I believe that all my dreams came true So how did I get by without you In the morning light To see you wake up next to me It? s a beautiful sight Now everything's alright Yeah I love you More than any words could ever say I need you Baby let me count the ways And I'll be here I believe in everything you do So how did I get by without you You love me Now I know that I'm the lucky guy You've got me And there's nowhere I can hide So I'll stay here I believe in everything you do So how did I get by without you How did I get by How did I get by without you in my world How did I get by without you as my girl You're beautiful Beautiful So how did I get by without you Without you Without you

All I ever wanted was to get away And spend some time alone To a big house in the country To a private yacht with Wall St. on the phone And in a million dollar paradise Maybe I could sing a better song But I've found something different now And I finally understand That money gets you everything But it slips straight through your hands And it's love that makes the world go round And it's nationwide from town to town It gets you coming up and going down And it makes everything alright I'd give you everything and that's a start To get next to you and the keys to your heart There's something going on here Something going on behind your eyes You got me feeling kind of nervous With that Mona Lisa smile And maybe I could get a steady job Bring home the bacon 9 to 5 See I'd do anything to win you Anything at all, I've got my cards Down on the table, baby We could have a ball! Chorus There was a time when I believed That I'd be Ok Living by myself Then I laid eyes on you And I believe that I became somebody else Now I believe... yeah! yeah! yeah!

Babe I had a dream Woke up in a sweat Darkness all around me I was caught in its net Tried to reach for you But you weren't there It only was a dream But it put danger in the air I can feel the nervous rhythm Of your heart with mine Could we ever stay together Stand the test of time Baby make me a believer Cause this world will lie (Oh these times are hard for lovers) It's getting harder for you and me (Oh) It's hard on me and you Baby we can make it Cause our love will pull us through These times are hard for lovers It's down to me in you Nothing's gonna break us If we hang on to what's true These times are hard for lovers I believe in you These times are hard for lovers I believe in you Everywhere you turn Trouble going on Living under pressure Loving under the gun It's hard enough to live Draw another breath Hang on to me baby Like it's life or death I can feel the nervous rhythm of your heart with mine Could we ever stay together Stand the test of time Baby make me a believer Cause this world will lie (Oh these times are hard for lovers) It's getting harder for you and me (Oh) It's hard on me and you Baby we can make it Cause our love will pull us through These times are hard for lovers It's down to me in you Nothing's gonna break us If we hang on to what's true These times are hard for lovers I believe in you These times are hard for lovers I believe in you Can you feel the nervous rhythm of your heart with mine Could we ever stay together Stand the test of time Baby make me a believer Cause this world will lie We've got to go the distance Touch the sky Baby we can make it Cause our love will pull us through These times are hard for lovers It's down to me in you Nothing's gonna break us If we hang on to what's true These times are hard for lovers I believe in you (These times are hard for lovers whoa) Whoa (These times are hard for lovers oh yeah) (These times are hard for lovers whoa) Whoa (These times are hard for lovers oh yeah) I believe in you (These times are hard for lovers whoa) When I turn to you (These times are hard for lovers oh yeah) Yeah But I don't believe it (These times are hard for lovers whoa) Yeah (These times are hard for lovers oh yeah) Whoa (These times are hard for lovers whoa) Baby I believe in you (These times are hard for lovers oh yeah) Baby I believe in you (These times are hard for lovers whoa) Baby I believe in you (These times are hard for lovers oh yeah)
