Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I can't stand by And see you destroyed I can't be here And watch you burn up Lie for the moment And lie as a decoy Does it matter if I give in easy? So why is it so hard to get by? And I say we so down But it's now or never, baby We don't mind If this don't last forever See the light But it won't last forever Seize the time 'Cause it's now or never, baby Let's leave at sunrise Let's live by the ocean I don't mind If we never come home at all Steal the morning So set in motion In and out of love And institutions 'Cause I know This can't last for long And I say we so down But it's now or never baby We don't mind If this don't last forever See the light But it won't last forever Seize the time 'Cause it's now or never, baby So why is it so hard to get by? And I say We so down But this can't last forever We don't mind 'Cause it's now or never, baby
