D C                B
If you wanted to get somewhere
                   C                  B
And it took you a long time to get there
Would you want to rush back here?
I didn't think so

Take me somewhere cool
Take a long time
Take as long as it takes
Take me somewhere cool
I want to touch that face

I have seen the face
I have seen the vacant look
Oh, it's silly I know

Am I a fool?
I'm not smart as a rat
I'm much smarter than that
I am a fool who wants to kiss your beautiful face
I have seen your face
I have seen that look you gave me
Oh, it's silly I know

Face
I have seen the face
I have seen the eyes
And the brilliant ego
Face
I have seen the face
I have waited my whole life
And I really want to go

Face
I have seen your face
I have waited my whole life
And I really want to go

Face
I have seen your face
I have waited my whole life
And I really want to go

Face
I have seen the face
I have waited my whole life
And I really want to go
