{Le refrain} :
I tried to tell you that on Monday
The day before I went away
I was always there when you were coming down
I had to take some time
Take some time

You know I'm needing you for so much pleasure
I'm always wanting you to take me there
I need to be the one to tell you that you're on the right road
And how some time alone is only fair
You know I'm renowned

And feel it's a lonely time I had
But it never felt that bad
I tried to tell you that on Monday

The day before I went away
I was always there when you were coming down
You never took the time
Took the time
I wish you'd known me when I was much younger

As I closed my eyes upon the world
But now an open mind which seems much stronger
A perfect doubting of your every word

You know I'm renowned
And feel it's a lonely time I had
But it never felt that bad

{Le refrain}

C'mon c'mon x4

You know I'm renowned
For the lonely time I had
But it never felt that bad

{Le refrain} (*2)

Never took the time x3
To stop me
I always wanted you to stop me
You never took the time.
