Time II believe-eve that you-u
Just might be the one
Helped me see the light opened up my mi-ind
And made me whole the fire in me
Drives me overboard i'm lost in here
Take me far and wild take me to the sea-ea
And bring me home home

Hey Lisa been hanging by the telephone
Oh Lisa, my Lisa said I want cha body
Said I need, your body
Said I want cha body right now
Said I want cha body i need, your body

You take my hand hold me make me your o-own
And drain my pain (um um) inspire the young
And all who believe-eve
That time will change-ange (oh oh)
Ti-ti-time again
I'm going to catch the city (ay ay)
Before the morning light (ay ay)

I'll meet you in the city (oh oh)
And look you in your eyes
And tell you (hey) baby!

Hey Lisa why don't chu come over

So hey Lisa, keep hanging by your phone girl
(fading out) keep hanging by your phone girl
