[Verse 1]
How close can we get till we let go?
And we know it's the way
And I know how it feels
To have to give it all away

There's no, no hiding the pain
It's inevitable
And I know how it feels
To brace yourself for all of the change

[Pre-Chorus: Jo Harman]
'Cause we're out of time
They push you back in the line
And I'll smile like you do
When everything's going wrong
And I start to feel
Over and over

[Chorus: Jo Harman & Michael McDonald]
When we were young it was oh so easy then
When we were young we were never ever spent but
I always knew from this sense that I got
That we would fall through from this net up above
'Cause when we were young all the worry was left for getting old
[Verse 2: Jo Harman]
How far to keep this whole world apart?
Sticking right together
And I know how it feels
It ain't nothing new to me

[Pre-Chorus: Jo Harman]
'Cause we're out of time
They push you back in the line
And I'll smile like you do
When everything's going wrong
And I start to feel
Over and over

[Chorus: Jo Harman & Michael McDonald]
When we were young it was oh so easy then
When we were young we were never ever spent but
I always knew from this sense that I got
That we would fall through from this net up above
'Cause when we were young
All the worry was left for getting old babe

[Bridge: Jo Harman]
When the brave has passed and I'm moving on, babe
The love I felt for you was just so wrong
Wasn't enough for me to go on and on
You gotta turn it around
[Pre-Chorus: Jo Harman]
And I'll smile like you do
When everything's going wrong
And I start to feel
Over and over

[Chorus: Jo Harman & Michael McDonald]
When we were young it was oh so easy then
When we were young we were never ever spent but
I always knew from this sense that I got
That we would fall through from this net up above
'Cause when we were young
All the worry was left for getting old babe
