Lyrics
[Intro]
The first star I see may not be a star
We can't do a thing but wait
So let's wait for one more
[Verse 1]
And the time, such clumsy time
In deciding if it's time
I'm careful but not sure how it goes
You can lose yourself in your courage
[Chorus]
When the time we have now ends
When the big hand goes round again
Can you still feel the butterflies?
Can you still hear the last goodnight?
[Verse 2]
And the mindless comfort grows
When I'm alone with my great plans
And this is what she said gets her through it
"If I don't let myself be happy now, then when?
If not now, when?"
[Chorus]
When the time we have now ends
When the big hand goes round again
Can you still feel the butterflies?
Can you still hear the last goodnight?
[Bridge]
I close my eyes and believe
Wherever you are, an angel for
[Chorus]
When the time we have now ends
When the big hand goes round again
Can you still feel the butterflies?
Can you still hear the last goodnight?
