he takes his time when he says goodbye
so i know it isn't easy to leave me behind
when we're apart he finds a million ways
to let me know i'm on his mind throughout the day
now you would think that it'd be enough
to reassure my fears when they come creepin' up
but what it takes to calm my crazy mind
is occupying all my time
nobody wants to lose
and have to build it all again
but why do i play the end
when we are still just beginning
we're not running out of days and
he's not going anywhere yea
in a sudden twist a fate
it seems time is on my side
my past has only left to me to believe
that everyone will let you down eventually
and i have tried every way i know
to push that man right out my door
but somehow he never goes
he loves me with a patient heart
and while i know that we may not be forever
i'm grateful for the days that we left together
we're not running out of days and
he's not going anywhere yea
in a sudden twist a fate
it seems time is finally on my side
and now i, i'll be alright
i'm in such a rush to get to where i'm goin that i fail to see
i'm already standing exactly in the place that i want to be
every moment that he's standing right by my side
shows me there's only more to come
i'm a girl who surely likes her guarantees
but it's time to trust in something i can't see cuz
we're not running out of days and
he's not going anywhere yea
in a sudden twist a fate
it seems time is on my side
we're not running out of days and
he's not going anywhere yea
in a sudden twist a fate
it seems time is finally on my side
and now i, i'll be alright
