It's just a thought
But I've noticed somethin' strange
Gettin' harder to explain
All the years are passin' by and by
Still I don't know what makes it go
Who said to wait and you'll see?

It's just a thought
But I wondered if you knew
That the song up there is you
They can't take it from you
You don't give it away
Don't give it away
Ooh (it's given away)

It's just a thought
But the word has come too late
That a bad idea will take
Just about a lifetime to explain
And don't you see
Good one's gonna be much longer
Who's gonna wait, just to see?
