专辑:《Countdown (Rare Single)》

Oh, I was 17, when I heard the countdown start
It started slowly and I thought it was my heart
But then I realised that this time it was for real
There was no place to hide, I had to, had to go out and feel
But there was time to kill, and so I, I walked my way around town
I tried to love the world, oh, but the world just got me down
And so I looked for you in every street of every town
I wanted to see your face, I wanna, I wanna see you now
I wanna see you now

Oh, and so it went, oh so it went for several years
I couldn't stand it, no, oh, it must be getting near now that
You just don't know, oh no, you, you just don't understand
How many people've seen you in the arms of, of
Of some other man
I've got to meet you, and find you and take you by the hand
Oh my God, my God, you've got to understand that I was 17
I didn't, I didn't know a thing at all
I've got no reason, I've got no reason at all, oh no

Oh, the time of my life, oh, I think you came too soon
Yeah, you came too soon then
Oh, and it could, it could be tonight, if I ever leave this room
(I never leave this room, no)
Oh, oh, I wasted all my time on all those stupid things
That only get me down
Get down, oh
Oh, and the sky is crying out tonight for me to leave this town
So, I'm gonna leave this town, goodbye, O.K

Yeah, you can leave me, oh, you, you can go some other place
You can't forget it, yeah, you know, you know that's O.K
Cos, cos I own this town, yeah, yeah, I brought it to its knees
Can you hear it crying? Can you?
Can you hear it begging to me "Please?"
I know it's coming so soon now, oh, oh, it's, it's on it's way
Oh no, oh no, oh, I, I can hear them say
They say I can't survive, they say I, I'll never leave the ground
They say it's all a lie, and now, and now it's coming down
Oh, baby now

Oh, the time of my life, oh, I think you came too soon
Yeah, it came too soon, now
Oh, and it could, oh, it could be tonight if I ever leave this room
(I never leave this room, no)
Oh, oh, oh, I wasted all my time on all those stupid things
That only get me down
Get down, oh
Oh, and the sky is crying out tonight for me to leave this town
So I'm gonna go, gonna be there, I'm gonna go, buh-bye

It's O.K., you don't have to care
Really, oh, oh, really, I swear, no
No, you owe me nothing, you owe nothing to me
And if I messed it up, baby, then, that's all up to me, yeah
And if you go, then, then I won't follow, no, no
Cos so many times I've been, I've been thinking maybe
Oh, maybe I should
No, I, I'm gonna stay, no, I'm gonna make my way
Oh, I'm gonna get on through, babe
I'm gonna make it all some day

Oh, and the time of my life, oh no, I think you came too soon
Oh, you came too soon then
Oh, and it could, oh, it could be tonight if I ever leave this room
(I never, I never leave this room, no)
Oh, oh, oh, I wasted all my time on all those stupid things
That only get me down
Get down, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, and the sky is crying out tonight for me to leave this town
So I'll leave this town, oh ho
And oh, the sky is crying out tonight for me to leave this town
Yeah, I'm gonna leave this town, O.K
Oh, time is crying out tonight for me to leave this town
So I'm gonna go, yeah, I'm gonna go, really, buh-bye

I'm gonna leave this town, uh oh!
You're not gonna have me around, uh oh!
The sky and stars and God will never, ever, ever laugh
Uh uh oh! Uh oh!
Me and stars and the moon are falling down
