About 10 Seconds

[Verse]
So, I see you found some friends
You found a girl to spend the night with
While Josie's far away
So, you have a couple drinks
You take a final glance at blueness
At least you tried to stay

So, I see you smile a bit
You found a lady to applaud while
Your finger holds the fret
So, you take a couple hits
You take your mind of the disaster
And you don't feel regret

[Chorus A]
Beauty's wearing brown hair with flakes of gold
If I wanna have her, I must be bold
Beauty's wearing brown hair with flakes of gold
She's got the woman's touch that I seek
The essence to keep me from getting old

[Chorus B]
So, if I consider the fact that I know exactly what I'm doing wrong
Will I have to pay even though I am trying something new once more
And I now see life as something different, extravagant
I found at last some love, some meaning, and a purpose to
Leave my Island
(Leave Your Island)
Swim across and
(Swim Across and)
Know who I am
(He's who I am)
Love who I am
(Love who I am)
I'm trying to gather up the courage to tell you in a subtle way
I found a reason to enjoy life, and it's the reason I must

[Verse]
Stay. You bring her up the stairs
You tear the wrapping off the present
You tear without a a shame
So, you put your feelings in
You make her intimate and stranger
You just forgot her name

So, you need to live the life
You need to find a good distraction
Til beauty can arrive
You should have a couple drinks
It's not a final glance at blueness
You'll stop the shots at five
It's not a final glance at blueness
You're learning how to strive

[Chorus A]
You want me to go back, I found my heart here
Little of a throwback, to be sincere
Beauty's wearing brown hair with flakes of gold
She's got the woman's touch that I seek
The essence to keep me from getting old

[Chorus B]
So, if I consider the fact that I know exactly what I'm doing wrong
Will I have to pay even though I am trying something new once more
And I now see life as something different, extravagant
I found at last some love, some meaning, and a purpose to
Leave my Island
(Leave Your Island)
Swim across and
(Swim Across and)
Know who I am
(He's who I am)
Love who I am
(Love who I am)
I'm trying to gather up the courage to tell you in a subtle way
I found a reason to enjoy life, and it's the reason I moved

[Bridge]
Going back, I wear a mask I lie to those who never mattered
Going back, I'm putting beauty far away
Anyway, I gotta push myself to find a way to get through
Every day, I gotta put my mind to her
Cause I know time ruins everything except for true love
So why do I push so hard for something else
If I know beauty's wearing brown hair?

Ooh, ah
Gold

She's got the woman's touch that I seek
The essence to keep me from getting old

[Guitar Solo]
