You came 2 me 
Said give you more time 
Time 2 get yourself 2gether 
Time 2 make up your mind 
I want 4ever love 
You want a one night fantasy 
While I'm sittin' here waitin' on you 
You know somebody somewhere's waitin' on me 

Time waits 4 no one 
Time don't wait 4 nobody, nobody 
And time waits 4 no one 
If you wait 2 long 
You can turn around and I'll be gone, gone, gone 

(Time, time, time) 
I just can't sit around 
Watchin' my life pass me by 
So if U're ever gonna make a change 
Better be right now, right now, right now! 

I don't know if anybody ever told you, boy 
But impatience is my middle name (My middle name) 
So if my good, good? good lovin' means anything 2 you, babe 
You better stop runnin' your game 

Time waits 4 no one (No one) 
Time don't wait 4 nobody, nobody 
Time waits 4 no one (No one) 
If you wait 2 long 
You turn around and I'll be gone, gone, gone 

You came 2 me 
You said give you more time 
But baby, baby, I could see through you 
Even if I were deaf, dumb and blind 

Time waits 4 no one (No one) 
Time don't wait 4 nobody, nobody 
(Time) Time waits 4 no one 
So if you wait 2 long (2 long) 
You turn around and I'll be gone, gone, gone 

(Time, time, time) Waits 4 no one 
Don't wait 4 no one 
Nobody, nobody 
No, nobody 

Time waits 4 no one 
Time don't wait 4 nobody, nobody 
Time, time, time waits 4 no one
