Time to count the hours, time to know that now is time just slipping away
You say how you need me, I'm still waiting to see time keep slipping away

I'm still chasing that rainbow, you always reach it too soon
Why is it we're never quite in tune, where did all the time go?

Chorus:
It's hard to say it's over, it's hard to say goodbye
When you love someone, when you need someone
Who's the only one you want in your life
The world is all but ending, but I can't lay down and die
I miss you now, most all of the time
And I can't help but wonder why, oh oh oh

Time to say you're sorry, time to see how far the time's been slipping away
You reach out your hand, I try to understand, we look for something to say

Me with my map to the treasure, you'd rather give it away
Wish we'd held back on yesterday, where did all the time go?

chorus

It's hard to say it's over, it's hard to say goodbye
When you love someone, when you need someone
Who's the only one you want in your life, oh oh oh
