A joke is not a joke It's serious stuff Till it's laughed at This moment's not the past It's nothing at all till I say that Angel throw me a line It's about time It's about time Never too late I will escape I just can't wait Don't tell me there's no tears left to cry Don't tell me that you're lonely you're lonely Remembering the who, how and why Don't tell I'm your only if only The glitter and the gloom A catch a glimpse of you in the room Dollar bills for dreams Nothing round here's quite what it seems Angel throw me a line It's about time It's about time Never too late I wills escape I just can't wait Don't tell me there's no tears left to cry Don't tell me that you're lonely You're lonely Remembering the who, how and why Don't tell me I'm your only if only If I could feel it If only If I could mean it If only
