Time Is of the Essence
They say that time is precious, time is of the essence
When you're a young man you've got to take any chance you can
So make your move, boy, the night won't last forever
You've got nothing to prove, boy, but if you think you're clever...
If it breaks her heart, boy
You can't hold yourself to blame
You've got to put yourself first, boy
There's no use feeling ashamed because it's not you who feels the pain
What happens on the road stays on the road
We don't talk about it, we don't break the unwritten code
So don't be shy now, you're a man you can do whatever you please
If you think you're better than her, pal, don't let her find out, don't leave her on her knees
If it breaks her heart, boy
You can't hold yourself to blame
You've got to put yourself first, boy
There's no use feeling ashamed because it's not you who feels the pain
If it breaks her heart, boy
You can't hold yourself to blame
You've got to put yourself first, boy
There's no use feeling ashamed
If she ever finds out, boy
You find her with tears in her eyes
Would it keep you awake at night?
Would it break your heart?
You've already tore her apart
When you're a young man you've got to take any chance you can
So make your move, boy, the night won't last forever
You've got nothing to prove, boy, but if you think you're clever...
If it breaks her heart, boy
You can't hold yourself to blame
You've got to put yourself first, boy
There's no use feeling ashamed because it's not you who feels the pain
What happens on the road stays on the road
We don't talk about it, we don't break the unwritten code
So don't be shy now, you're a man you can do whatever you please
If you think you're better than her, pal, don't let her find out, don't leave her on her knees
If it breaks her heart, boy
You can't hold yourself to blame
You've got to put yourself first, boy
There's no use feeling ashamed because it's not you who feels the pain
If it breaks her heart, boy
You can't hold yourself to blame
You've got to put yourself first, boy
There's no use feeling ashamed
If she ever finds out, boy
You find her with tears in her eyes
Would it keep you awake at night?
Would it break your heart?
You've already tore her apart
