[Verse 1: Oliver Sim]
I can give it all on the first date
I don't have to exist outside this place
And dear know that I can change
[Chorus: Oliver Sim]
But if stars, shouldn't shine

Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cos we can give it time
So much time
With me
[Verse 2: Romy Madley-Croft]
And I can draw the line on the first date
I'll let you cross it
Let you take every line I've got
When the time gets late
[Chorus: Romy Madley-Croft]
But if stars, shouldn't shine
By the very first time
Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cos we can give it time
So much time
With me
[Bridge: Oliver Sim + Romy Madley-Croft + Both]
If you want me
Let me know
Where do you wanna go
No need for talking
I already know
If you want me
Why I go
If you want me
Let me know
Where do you wanna go
No need for talking
I already know
If you want me
Why go
[Verse 1: Oliver Sim]
I can give it all on the first date
I don't have to exist outside this place
And dear know that I can change
[Chorus: Oliver Sim]
But if stars, shouldn't shine
By the very first time
Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cos we can give it time
So much time
With me
[Chorus: Both]
But if stars, shouldn't shine
By the very first time
Then dear it's fine, so fine by me
'Cos we can give it time
So much time
With me
