Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, mm-mm
Yeah, don't stop
[Verse 1]
You can cry a million tears
You can wait a million years
If you think that time will change your ways
Don't wait too long
[Verse 2]
When your morning turns to night
Who'll be loving you by candlelight?
If you think that time will change your ways
Don't wait too long
[Chorus]
Maybe I've got a lot to learn
Time can slip away
Sometimes you gotta lose it all
Before you find your way
Take a chance, play your part
Make romance, it might break your heart
But if you think that time will change your ways
Don't wait too long
[Instrumental]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh-huh, mhm
[Verse 3]
It may rain, it may shine
Love will age like fine red wine
But if you think that time will change your ways
Don't wait too long
[Chorus]
Maybe you and I've got a lot to learn
Why waste another day?
Maybe you got to lose it all
Before you find your way
Take a chance, play your part
Make romance, it might break your heart
But if you think that time will change your ways
Don't wait too long
Don't wait too long
Don't wait too long
Time's a-tickin'
