Lyrics

If you wait too long, you're going to miss that train
If you wait too long you're going to miss that train
If you wait too long, you're going to miss that train
yes you will, it won't be back again

If you wait too long, the trees will surely burn
If you wait too long, the trees will surely burn
If you wait too long, the trees will surely burn
yes they will, and then where will you turn

If you wait too long, your love will not grow old
If you wait too long, your love will not grow old
If you wait too long, your love will not grow old
no they won't, and then who will you hold

If you wait too long, you're going to lose the Earth
If you wait too long, you're going to lose the Earth
If you wait too long, you're going to lose the Earth
the you'll know just what your money's worth
