[Verse 1]
Talk of the town
How do you do?
If you take off your crown
Who are you?

[Bridge]
Did you get carried away by some fortune and fame?
Did you lose what you had to say?
When you're down on your knees but still miles from the peak
Do you give up or take off and wait?

[Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna waste another sunny afternoon
Lost in a haze when I should be up there with you
Wait for me, I'm coming
I'm putting on my shoes
I'll meet you at the summit
When I'm out of this
Gloom
Gloom
Wait for me, I'm coming
I'm putting on my shoes
I'll meet you at the summit
When I'm out of this
Gloom
[Verse 2]
Push yourself up
And dust yourself off
Oh, you'll never be happy
If you can't take the fall

[Bridge]
If you weren't so shy, if you dared to believe
If your hands weren't tied, if your lips weren't sealed
You'd be up in the clouds, not in here with me
But it's time that we set ourselves free

[Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna waste another sunny afternoon
Lost in a haze when I should be up there with you
Wait for me, I'm coming
I'm putting on my shoes
I'll meet you at the summit
When I'm out of this

[Chorus]
I don't wanna waste another sunny afternoon
Lost in a haze when I should be up there with you
Wait for me, I'm coming
I'm putting on my shoes
I'll meet you at the summit
When I'm out of this
Gloom
Gloom
Gloom
Gloom
Gloom
Gloom
Gloom
Gloom
[Outro]
I don't wanna waste another sunny afternoon
Wandering a maze when I could be here with you
Wait for me, I'm coming
I think I'm almost there
I'll meet you at the summit
When I'm out of this gloom
When I'm out of this gloom
When I'm out of this gloom
When I'm out of this gloom
Gloom, gloom, gloom, gloom
Gloom, gloom, gloom
When I'm out of this gloom
This gloom
