When we're gonna make it work, working hour is over?
I could be happy, I could be quite nice
When we're gonna make it work?
Soon we will be older
Once given never forgotten, never let it disappear
We can do anything that we want
We've got the whole wide world in our hands
Anything that we feel like doing
Advice for the young at heart
When we're gonna make it work?
Songwriters: Holland, Orzabal
I'll make a promise, I'll make a stand
Too many people living in a secret world
Soon we will be older
Advice for the young at heart
We've got the whole wide world in our hands, in our hands

When we're gonna make it work?
'Cause to these big brown eyes this comes as no surprise
It's only me and my shadow happy in our make believe, soon
And when I think of you and all the love that's due
I'll make a promise, I'll make a stand
Soon we will be older
And with the hounds at bay I'll call your bluff
'Cause to these big brown eyes this comes as no surprise
We've got the whole wide world in our hands
When we're gonna make it work, working hour is over?
Love is a promise, love is a souvenir
'Cause it would be okay to walk on tiptoes everyday
Advice for the young at heart
Advice
We play little boys and girls
Soon we will be older
'Cause someone sent my soul to sleep
And when I think of you and all the love that's due
This could be our last chance
Advice for the young at heart
We've got the whole wide world in our hands
While they play mothers and fathers
How it makes me weep
When we're gonna make it work?
