lyrics

Your friends
Wanted to enjoy their time
With the time that it takes
It’s so short
Seems just like a visit, even in the dark winter chill
You’ve managed to get outside your home
But time’s still short for us
So make the best of it and
Try to stay a little longer

And it won’t take long, unless you want it to
Only a moment here, means a while there

Why don’t you spend the night with your friends?
Cuz it won’t take long unless you want it to.
We can all lose track of time so forever doesn’t feel so short.
So enjoy your time tonight and today
before you strike out and leave home.

We always wanted to hang out with the guys,
but never seem to have time
We’ll have plenty of time,
but then we’ll run out of time
So try, oh how we try to make the best of it
So make the best of it
And try to move without age
