I had a coffee Sitting in a café, on a Paris street I saw the people Chasing their money, on their tired feet I know I'd sit there forever, If I could I know I'd sit there forever, If I could I found a paper Folded in the corner of fashion page I read the headline But I didn't have a care as I wore my suede I know I'd sit there forever, If I could I know I'd sit there forever, If I could Isn't it true, isn't it true We waste our time, we do Isn't it true, isn't it true We need more time, to do the things we do I heard a phone ring Somewhere in a pocket of a business man But I write a letter Word on the paper, like a painting hand I know I'd sit there forever, If I could I know I'd sit there forever, If I could Can't you feel your precious light Get drained away each day Stop your silence, make your noise Before they turn away You're dead and bound, you've done it now I'm gonna tell you now You're dead and bound, you've done it now I'm gonna tell you now I sit on the edge of the rest of my life I sip on the taste that you left in my life Isn't it true, isn't it true We waste our time, we do Isn't it true, isn't it true We need more time, to do the things we do
