In the Time It Takes by X Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1987

In the time it takes to pay my hotel bill
I could lose my mind, walk out the door on the 14th floor
If you’ve been there once, you’ve been there a million times
And a million and one ain’t no time to get it wrong
Do you wake up
At midnight
In the middle of the room
Beating on a door that’s locked?
Well, I do
I do
I do

In the time it takes to sing this song
You could fall in love, jump off the floor into my arms
And you must look deep into my eyes
To see the tiny, evil lies
Do you wake up
In the moonlight
Just howling at the moon?
Do you wonder
In the morning?
Well, I do
I do
I do
A lot of crazy things
[Chorus]
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
In the time it takes
Hey, hey

In the time it takes to smoke one cigarette
You could have one more, just one more for the road
This may be the very last thing you hear
Yeah, but I hope that everybody makes it home
And do you wake up
At the wheel
Heading for the shoulder of the road
Screaming "God, please, save my soul!"
Well, I do
I do
I do
A lot of crazy things

[Chorus]
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
In the time it takes
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
In the time it takes
In the time it takes
In the time it takes
