A cold and frosty morning there's not a lot to say
About the things caught in my mind
As the day was dawning my plane flew away
With all the things caught in my mind
And I want to be there when you're
Coming down

And I want to be there when you hit the ground
So don't go away, say what you say
But say that you'll stay
Forever and a day in the time of my life
'Cause I need more time, yes, I need more time
Just to make things right

Damn my situation and the games I have to play
With all the things caught in my mind

Damn my education I can't find the words to say
About all the things caught in my mind

And I want to be there when you're
Coming down

And I want to be there when you hit the ground
So don't go away, say what you say
But say that you'll stay
Forever and a day in the time of my life
'Cause I need more time, yes, I need more time
Just to make things right

Me and you what's going on?
All we seem to know is how to show
The feelings that are wrong

So don't go away, say what you say
But say that you'll stay
Forever and a day in the time of my life
'Cause I need more time, yes, I need more time
Just to make things right

So don't go away, say what you say
But say that you'll stay
Forever and a day in the time of my life
'Cause I need more time, yes, I need more time
Just to make things right
Yes, I need more time
Just to make things right
Yes, I need more time
Just to make things right
So don't go away

Developed from an earlier group, the Rain, the band originally consisted of Liam Gallagher (lead vocals, tambourine), Paul Arthurs (guitar), Paul McGuigan (bass guitar), and Tony McCarroll (drums). Upon returning to Manchester, Liam's older brother Noel Gallagher (lead guitar, vocals) joined as a fifth member, which formed the band's core and settled line-up.
