Lyrics

excuse me if I speak
but I feel a little lost
and the artificial calm
is weighing down on me
I've been working hard
to neatly pack away
all my feelings
I hide them for your sake

the numbers change and hands turn round
with frightening speed they mark the time
unaware that any hour will always be

too soon to leave, to take yourself from me
forget where you should be, stay here, it's too soon to leave

the sun on my skin and the scent in the air
don't know where we fall in my year
and it isn't rain that's burning my cheeks and the fruits have all found a bitter taste

you've always had the strangest way of knowing exactly where you are
yet wishing you could be away
but I can't hold you or even follow

it's too soon to leave, to take yourself from me
forget where you should be, stay here, it's too soon to leave

a moment more a moment more
a moment more a moment more

it's too soon to leave, to take yourself from me
forget where you should be, stay here, it's too soon to leave
