Time stands still for no one, I'm behind again
I push and still I see, I'm getting nowhere quick
I'm staying late, again
Worlds turn in the time, I catch another breath
I know a little more will, surely do the trick
I can't delay, no, I can't be late
I can't take the time, but I plan to when I 'm done
I can't waste the day, nothing ventured, nothing
I don't think it's wise to be idle when you're young
Oh, I have to go, I'll have time to live tomorrow
Take a message for me, tell the wife I'm sorry
Deadline's almost here and there'll be more recitals
Anyway, there are bills to pay
I can't take the time, but I plan to when I'm done
I can't waste the day, nothing ventured, nothing
I don't think it's wise, to be idle when you're young
Oh, I have to go, I'll have time to live tomorrow
I have to go
Angels spread my wings and see the fences tumble
Ageless memories they watch the strong man crumble
At my feet what is this I see
I can't take the time, but I plan to when I'm done
I can't waste the day, nothing ventured, nothing
I don't think it's wise, to be idle when you're young
Oh, I have to go, I have to go
And I can't take the time, but I plan to when I'm done
I can't waste the day, nothing ventured, nothing
I don't think it's wise, to be idle when you're young
Oh, I have to go, I'll have time to live tomorrow
I have to go, I have to go
I have to go, I have to go
