Time don't run out on me
Gotta make you love me the way you used to do
Gotta get back the feeling
And put wind in my sails
And chart a course that gets me back to you
Back to you

Oh, the lonely days, the lonely nights
Looking back in time
Time don't run out on me
Gotta get back to where we used to be
Time don't run out on me

Don't run out on me
There's one more thing I gotta do before I pack it in
Gotta make the right moves
Say the right thing to change your mind
And find a way to get you back again
Back again

All the wasted time, the lonely nights
Looking back in time
Time don't run out on me
Gotta get back to where we used to be
Time don't run out on me

Once I could catch your eye across the room
And know just what you were thinking
And when I held you in my arms
We'd dream as one

But those days are gone
Something went wrong
And when I wake up to the morning sun
I find myself saying

Time don't run out on me
Don't run out on me
Time don't run out on me
Gotta get back to where we used to be
Time don't run out on me
