Harper's Bazaar


Put down your things, you don't really want to leave the room.
Get back in the light, I wanna see your face again.
It's early days, you ain't spent your last penny yet.
You can't fool me,
I know it's what you want, so stay.

Ever since we met, I've been holding you close to me.
There's no mountain you can't climb, when I'm by your side.
Come out of your shell, and show me your still made of steel.
There's no imitators who can do it with your kind of style.

I know, you've got all the tight credentials.
You've already passed the test of time.
You know, all you've gotta do is say the word.
I'll be waiting until the end of time.

And it's a long road to walk if you don't know the way,
But you've been there before.
It's a hard song to sing, but you've learnt all the words off by heart.
But Harper's Bazaar is a long way from here if you're lost in the storm.
To survive in the future don' mean you can't live in the past.

So you think your smart.
Think you've got all the answers.
Well how come your sitting at the bottom of the pile?
There's kids out there, who ain't got a clue what life's all about.
They're looking for a leader, you're the master, the timing's right.

Now it's time to own up.
You can't hide 'neath that smile for evermore.
It's time to turn back the clock, your mask is wearing thin.
If you don't join the race it'll be too late, you'll be left behind.
You'll be left in the water to drown like a cart that can't swim.

I know, you've got all the tight credentials.
You've already passed the test of time.
You know, all you've gotta do is say the word.
I'll be waiting until the end of time.

And it's a long road to walk if you don't know the way,
But you've been there before.
It's a hard song to sing, but you've learnt all the words off by heart.
But Harper's Bazaar is a long way from here if you're lost in the storm.
To survive in the future don' mean you can't live in the past.
