Lift your head, stand up straight, and set your mind, girl
It takes not long to cross the room
Lock his eyes, take his hand, and hallelujah
It takes not long to kiss the boy

I know I've things back home to deal with
I've been away for oh so long, oh oh oh oh
I never knew how much I'd miss you
Now I just need a place to stay

So choose your steps, hold your breath, and please be gentle
It takes not much to break my heart
Be all you can, keep your plan, and hallelujah
It takes not much to change the world

I know I've things back home to deal with
I've been away for oh so long, oh oh oh oh
I never knew how much I'd miss you
Now I just need a place to stay

I know I've things back home to deal with
I've been away for much too long, oh oh oh oh
I never knew how much I'd miss you
Now I just need a place to stay
