Almost too late
This chance a must take
Might make or break
But I'm [bad word] my fate
For much too long have I
Watched the years go by

Now I can't wait
I'm caught in the race
I find myself leaving no time to waste
Try keep my pace but
Time [bad word] late

Bridge:
(Then you say to me)
Is this the way it's gonna be?
(Just what I need!)
Have you forgotten a thing called "we"?
I feel the shame tumbling down on me
When you plead
 [bad word] 1:
Cover me
I need love can't you [bad word] on and rescue me
Cover me
I'm in need don't you see?

I cannot feel
I can't even breathe
Way too much heat while the pressure's on me
No relief
But it's the way it's gonna be

Bridge:
(How can it be?)
That it's so hard for you to see
(What about me?)
Just to be touched is all I need
I feel the [bad word] over me
As you plead
 [bad word] 2:
Cover me
I need love can't you [bad word] on and rescue me
Cover me
I'm in need don't you see?
Cover me
I need love [bad word] on and set me free
Cover me
Is that so hard to see?

[Solo]

So baby stop pretend
'Cause we're heading for the end
And you're hurting me again
