I don't wanna lose ya.
You can't slip away.
I don't wanna lose ya.
Oh, won't you please stay?

I just gotta tell ya
Before it gets too late.
I just gotta say it
Before time seals our fate.

[Chorus:]
Hold back tomorrow
Hold back the tide
All that I ask for
A little time...
Hold back tomorrow
Hold back the morning light
You're all I hoped for
We just need time on our side...

Moment by moment
Here comes the day
You know I need you
In a bad, bad way.

I've got a feeling
That I just can't shake
You're like the habit
So hard to break.

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Time's like a ship out on the ocean
All that we had slipped away...
(Slipped away)
Time's like a ship out on the ocean
Slipped away...!

[Chorus]
[Replace last line (We just need time so...)]

[Chorus]
