Intro (Pick yourself up kid ooh) (Pick yourself up kid ooh) Verse: 1   Pick yourself up kid I can’t bare the weight Pick your mood up friend We don’t have the time When you find someone We don’t run away Pick yourself up kid Verse: 2   All those books in your head Is that all this really was? Just a role you played You could hide behind Is it what you want? To bury yourself away Before your time goes? Pre-Chorus: I don’t want a love that holds us back I don’t want a life that I can’t have ’Cause people need a melody to open their eyes Like a key to a memory frozen in time Holding onto everything you’re stuck in the past Boy when you gonna learn the world moves fast? Verse: 3   So pick yourself up kid I can’t bare the weight Let the light back in ’Cause you’ve been walkin’ blind Now it’s all on you Don’t you let it fade Before your time goes Pre-Chorus I don’t want a love that holds us back I don’t want a life that I can’t have ’Cause people need a melody to open their eyes Like a key to a memory frozen in time Holding onto everything you’re stuck in the past Boy when you gonna learn the world moves fast? The world moves Bridge   It’s been a little while since we’ve   Been together it’s   Been a long time since we were   Young and wild remember?   When we were friends remember?   When we were lovers it’s   Not too late it was   Never too late Instrumental                       People need a melody to open their eyes To a memory frozen in time Holding onto everything you’re stuck in the past Boy when you gonna learn the world moves fast? People need a melody to open their eyes To a memory frozen in time Pre-Chorus I don’t want a love that holds us back I don’t want a life that I can’t have I don’t want a love that holds us back Outro:
