Hey, tell me now (tell me)
Say that I was yours somehow
Just tell me that day wasn't make-believe
If you'd open up and let your feelings free
Maybe then we'd see

But baby, it's the wrong time
Always the wrong time, mind the signs
You walked away when the clock struck midnight

Yeah, I loved you (I loved you)
Oh, how I loved you (loved you so)
Between the lines of time
I wrote our story in my mind
Had faith in impossible dreams
My heart was yours to keep
But waves and time taught us both
That you can't fight with love, no
(You can't fight with love)

Look up, heaven seems so close tonight
But when I reach out, it's still out of sight
That's just how it goes
We dream up all these beautiful things
Why can't we touch them? They're right there to claim
Why's it so hard to reach what we see?
(So close but we can't touch)

But baby, it's the wrong time
Always the wrong time, mind the signs
You walked away when the clock struck midnight

Yeah, I loved you (I loved you)
Oh, how I loved you (loved you so)
Between the lines of time
I wrote our story in my mind
Had faith in impossible dreams
My heart was yours to keep
But waves and time taught us both
That you can't fight with love, no
(You can't fight with love)

But no, no, no
The exit door is locked, and here we are
Stuck in the wrong time
(Wrong place, wrong time)
