I wonder if I had the nerve
To say what I've been thinking about
Lately
Could you ever come around?
I wonder if I had the words
To write you, would you figure it out?
Maybe
Are you gonna let me down?

'Cause I get tongue-tied and carried away
And somehow next summer starts in a week from today
So there's no time to waste
And you've got your car and no plan to stay
And I won't be left here out on the street as you wave
No, there's no time to waste at the end of May

You chose a seat next to me
Last fall and I've been playing it cool
But lately
I've been looking for a sign
Was it a dream? Did you seem
All nervous walking home after school?
Maybe
You couldn't look me in the eye, oh no

'Cause I get tongue-tied and carried away
And somehow next summer starts in a week from today
So there's no time to waste
And you've got your car and no plan to stay
And I won't be left here out on the street as you wave
No, there's no time to waste at the end of May

Have I waited too long?
Is it too late to change your mind?
I know each moment leaves me one more step behind
Have I waited too long?
Is it too late to make you mine?
I know each day leaves me with one more step to climb

'Cause I get tongue-tied and carried away
And somehow next summer starts in a week from today
So there's no time to waste (No, there's no time to waste)
And you've got your car and no plan to stay (Got your car)
And I won't be left here out on the street as you wave
No, there's no time to waste at the end
of May (No, there's no time to waste)

No, there ain't no time (Oh)
Oh yeah, baby
No, there's no time to waste at the end of May
Oh, there ain't no time to waste
No, I can't watch you drive away
No, there's no time to waste at the end of May
