lick my

On your knees a reassurance
buy some time and come back for it
before long
before it's gone
patience is like bread I say
I ran out of that yesterday
it's about time
it's about time
G
enough about us
let's talk about me
if not about you
It's nAot about sunshine
It's about time
It's about time
touch my leg
It's smooth but there stubble there
I'll fall back and let'em Go
only when I know you know
I don't know
make me sure
Have your people contact mine
and keep your lawyer on the line
it's about time } x4
