Time to go, you can't stay
So turn around and walk away
Time to go, you can't stay
So turn around and walk away
[Verse 1:]
I know we say we're meant to be
And one day soon will be married
Cause it's been love right from the start
Ever since that day I gave you my heart
But I don't want to play around with fire
Get caught up in the moment of fleshy desire
Cause God is sitting high and He's lookin' low
And we before we slip I think that you should know
It's time to go
[Chorus:]
Time to go, you can't stay
So turn around and walk away
You ain't gotta go home,
But you gotta get out of here
Time to go, you can't stay
So turn around and walk away
You ain't gotta go home,
But you gotta get out of here
[Verse 2:]
Don't want to do this to you
Don't want to do this to me
But I still feel that we can be happy
And if not, then I guess we weren't meant to be
Cause God means more to me than any kind of fantasy
Don't look at me strange, I still love you
But I love God a lot more than I love you
And you should too, well girl I know you do
So this doesn't mean that we're through, it's just
[Chorus:]
Time to go, you can't stay
So turn around and walk away
You ain't gotta go home,
But you gotta get out of here
Time to go, you can't stay
So turn around and walk away
You ain't gotta go home,
But you gotta get out of here
[Bridge:]
It'll be so much better, if we wait
Don't worry bout no guilt, no shame
If we wait because the bed is undefiled
If we wait, and all you gotta do is wait a whi;le
Oh! What a day, if we wait
It'll be granted by God
If we wait, baby girl I know it's hard
But it's time to go
Baby girl, that's it for me
Let's wait on this fantasy
Get your coat and grab your keys
Take your hand up off my knees
[Chorus:]
Time to go, you can't stay
So turn around and walk away
You ain't gotta go home,
But you gotta get out of here
Time to go, you can't stay
So turn around and walk away
You ain't gotta go home,
But you gotta get out of here
Hey, stop playin that saxophone
You causin' trouble in here man
