that would be too long to wait
too long to wait
too long to wait
too long to wait
with you not at my side
(2x)
I'm a tree without leaves
a flower with no bees
a bird oh that cannot sing
seasons without (a) spring
so please, please don't wander so far
you get lost up there with all those stars
ah that would be too long to wait
too long to wait
too long to wait
too long to wait
with you not at my side
(2x)
I'm a bell with no ring
jazz without the swing
a drum without a beat
a lamppost without a street
so always stay close to me
and don't drift out to sea
ah that would be too long to wait
too long to wait
too long to wait
too long to wait
with you not at my side
(2x)
I'm lost, I'm lost, I'm lost without the found
a horn that blows no sound
rocking without a chair
New Years without Time Square
so, when you do go away
ah, here comes that rainy day
too long to wait
too long to wait
too long to wait
