Nigel Olsson - Only A Matter of Time

Copied!

Don't say goodnight
We've got to work this thing out right
Don't turn away
Tell me you've got nothing more to say
Why say goodbye?
We don't need to draw that line
Don't close your eyes
We can make this love survive

It's only a matter of time
Before we break down and cross over the line
It's only a matter of pride
That keeps us thinking we're on different sides

It's only a matter of time
Please don't close your door
That isn't what we're working for
Why throw away everything
We've tried so hard to save?

It's only a matter of time
Before we break down and cry
And realize the only thing that matters
Is keeping our love alive

You going your way
And I going mine
Isn't what we came here for
