  • You wake up, I know it's time to go
    With a spinning head, I lie and watch you smoke
    Chase the hands on my watch and hold you close
    This misery is weightless as a stone

    Have you lost the same things I have lost?
    Do you know that panic I know?
    And would I see the terror in your face?
    Do you know that fever I know?

    I wish time was still
    We'd stay right here
    With time to kill
    In our hearts without chains
    And if time was still
    We'd have no fear
    Or scars to heal
    In our hearts without chains
    In our hearts without chains

    You left everything behind except yourself
    All I see is question marks and nothing else
    You must have landed in New York by now
    Please don't bring this love down

    And have you lost the same things I have lost?
    And do you know that panic I know?
    And would I see the terror in your face?
    Do you know that fever I know?

    I wish time was still
    We'd stay right here
    With time to kill
    In our hearts without chains
    And if time was still
    We'd have no fear
    Or scars to heal
    In our hearts without chains
    In our hearts without chains

    Don't bring this love down
    Don't bring this love down
    Don't bring this love down
    Don't bring this love down

    I wish time was still
    We'd stay right here
    With time to kill
    In our hearts without chains
    And if time was still
    We'd have no fear
    Or scars to heal
    In our hearts without chains
    In our hearts without chains
    In our hearts without chains Writer/s: Elena Jane Goulding, Fraser Lance Thorneycroft Smith
