lyrics

Don’t start running from the rain
It will take you down in thunder
Chasing the winds of change
Will only serve to steal the wonder from the world
Don’t wait for tomorrow
To put off yesterday
‘Cos the one who holds the stone
Can yield the right to throw
How do you feel?

Seconds away from disaster
Seconds away from the minutes that matter
Seconds away from a flash before your eyes
Surrender your goodbye
But don’t let it slip away

Singin’ how do you feel?
Did you take the time to heal?
Did you take time for your soul?
What is it called?
When all you try to do is stay
You can’t help but run, run
Run away

Seconds away from disaster
Seconds away from the minutes that matter
Seconds away from a flash before your eyes
Surrender your disguise
But don’t let it slip away

Slip away (x3)

Seconds away from disaster
Seconds away from the minutes that matter
Seconds away from a flash before your eyes
Surrender your goodbye
But don’t let it

Don’t let it slip
Slip away
Slip away
Slip away
