Please

and now you turned the tables on us
once again, the master of disguise
somehow you were able to just slip away
right before our eyes
maybe it’s true, what doesn’t kill you makes you strong
well then please, don’t let it take too long
must be a million dreams of young men
scattered and forgotten over time
beautifully painted by the heart
then deconstructed by the mind
you chose a world that had no use for right and wrong
only please, don’t let it take too long
tonight the sky is one star brighter
down here you left a hole
that over time, will just get wider
up on the palisades, the windows down, the quiet night above
we sat in your '66 dodge dart and passed the pipe to «all you need is love»
and really believed the world could live up to that song
singing please, don’t let it take too long
please, don’t make me wait so long
be the chance you want to take,
the change you want to make
the dream you want to wake
hold on, hold on…
i just got to ask, got to ask this one thing, i just got to ask it
don’t make me wait so long.
