[Verse 1]

You said I feel a long way from home

I'm not sure of the reason I've gone

A silent hill, a walk in the park

Just waiting for a message, a spark

[Chorus]

And time plays straight

Just waiting for something, no

Time won't wait

This time's lost for nothing, though

Time plays straight

Just waiting for something, no

Time plays with the day

[Verse 2]

I need to send a message back home

Is there a chance you'll answer the phone?

I think it could be changing, this path

It's probably better that you don't ask

[Chorus]

And time plays straight

Just waiting for something, no

I won't wait

This time's lost for nothing, though

Time plays straight

Still waiting for something, no

Time won't wait
