Time is never time at all
You can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth.
And our lives are forever changed, we will never be the same;
The more you change the less you feel.
Believe, believe in me, believe (belie[G]ve)[D] [Em]
That life can change, that you're not stuck in va[G]in[D] [Em]
We're not the same, we're different toni[Cadd9]ght.[G] [D] [Cadd9] [G] [D]
[Cadd9]Tonigh[G]t,[D] t[G]onight, so bright
[Cadd9]Tonigh[G]t,[D] t[Cadd9]onight[G] [D] [Em]
[G]And you know you're never sure
But sure you're sure you could be ri[Em]ght
If you held yourself up to the light
[G]And the embers never fade in your city by the lake
[Em]The place where you were born.
