Time is Too Short

Yes I know, I know what you've been through
A thousand times before I've been there
But through it all, the one thing I'd cling to
The warmth of a friend who would care
You know that life can be so hard
It doesn't have to be that hard
To see the light in a brand new day

You know that time is too short
For all this hurt you're going through
Let it go
Release the pain you bear
Cause I know, yes I know
That you're heading for heartbreak
Don't wonder why
The tides will turn

Little Kwame sits by the roadside
Not a decent meal eaten in two days
His mumma's barely out of her childhood
Don't know his daddy
Cause he never stayed
Who knows what Kwame's future holds
When the world can be so cold
It's time we all lent a helping hand

You know that time is too short
For all this hurt you're going through
Let it go
Release the pain you bear
Cause I know, yes I know
That you're heading for heartbreak
Don't wonder why
Oh the tides will turn

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh

Woooh time is too short
For all this hurt you're going through
Let it go
Release the pain you bear
Cause I know, yes I know
That you're heading for heartbreak
Don't wonder why
Oh the tides will turn
