“Stop the Sun”

When I was young – hours passed so slowly 

When I was young – had all the time in the world 

When I was young – hot summer nights lasted forever 

And I thought I would too

But now I need more time 

To do what I must do 

I wanna raise my arms and  

Shout!  

Stop the sun – until the job is done 

Shout! 

Stop the sun – until the race is won 

Shout! 

Stop the sun – until I finish what I’ve just begun 

When I was young – mistakes they didn’t matter 

When I was young – always another chance 

When I was young – time was meant for wasting 

And now I want it back 

‘Cause now I need more time 

To do what I must do 

I wanna raise my arms and  

Shout! 

Stop the sun – until the job is done 

Shout! 

Stop the sun – until the race is won 

Shout! 

Stop the sun – until I finish what I’ve just begun 

The most important days in life 

Are the day you’re born 

And the day you find out why 

And now I know 

I can always make more money 

But I can never make more time 

Shout! 

Stop the sun – until the job is done 

Shout! 

Stop the sun – until the race is won 

Shout! 

Stop the sun – until I finish what I’ve just begun 

I wanna raise my arms and stop the sun 

I wanna raise my arms and stop the sun 

I wanna raise my arms and stop the sun
