Life is a ride where you choose
And you decide if you wait or jump in front of the line
But whilst you wait you will learn
That hesitating can only cause wasting of time
If you remove all the brakes in your life
You will not see that people have started fading
The ones closest to you will move along and you will be
The one left evading

Don't say you're ready to leave
You won't leave, come back into my life
Tabitha, mummy and me
We'll pretend everything is just fine
You'd always start and I wish you would stop too
Think what you are doing, think what you are doing to us
I know you don't wanna go
Ooh, I just want you back home

Life is a strange fairytale
Someone you knew so well can one day hit you with shock
'Cause you don't think that one day they'll have to go away
And when they do, you'll feel lost
How do you protect a child from missing something
They just can't hide
Is it all really worthwhile, ooh
This whole love thing seems to come at a cost

Don't say you're ready to leave
You won't leave, come back into my life
Tabitha, mummy and me
We'll pretend everything is just fine
You'd always start and I wish you would stop too
Think what you are doing, think what you are doing to us
I know you don't wanna go
Ooh I just want you back home

Too late, too soon, it's not fair
I want, she wants, we need you there
I know you don't want and so does she
We're all just hoping for a remedy

Don't say you're ready to leave
You won't leave, come back into my life
Tabitha, mummy and me
We'll pretend everything is just fine
You'd always start and I wish you would stop too
Think what you are doing, think what you are doing to us
I know you don't wanna go
Ooh, I just want you back home

I know you don't wanna go
I just want you back home
I know you don't wanna go
