Give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow Give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow Life's to short to make a mistake Let's think of each other and hesitate Young and impatient we may be There's no need to act foolishly If we part our hearts won't forget it Years from now we'll surely regret it Give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow Give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow You're young and you're in a hurry You're eager for love but don't you worry We both want the sweetness in life But these things don't come overnight Don't give up 'cos love's been slow Boy, we're gonna succeed with another blow Give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow Baby, please baby Baby, please baby Love is that mountain we must climb Let's climb it together your hand in mine We haven't known each other too long But the feeling I have is oh so strong I know we can make it there's no doubt We owe it to ourselves to find it out Just give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow Give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow Give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow Baby, please baby Baby, please baby Give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow Give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow Give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow Give me just a little more time And our love will surely grow

Got to feed the ghost Always searching for some gift for the ghost Knowing that he's raiding your soul for your sorrow As they're raising a toast To his raising the ghost The ghost And though you're waiting like that painting The Scream As he never -- no, never -- comes back Still, you know that he'll just keep chasing the dream Of the thing no one dreams that he'll catch But then, now, perhaps he has Why then would he ever look back Living without time Never knowing where it goes, all the time Only that you're facing some ghost of tomorrow As it leaves you behind Playing notes in your mind Haunted by the ghost Knowing you're the ghost The ghost
