When the time is right I’ll tell you how I’m feeling
When the time is right I’ll say what I’ve got to say
When the time is right and no-one else is listening
When the time is right and nothing’s in the way.

When the time is right I’ll share with you my secrets and
When the time is right I’ll open up my heart
When the time is right and I don’t feel so nervous
When the time is right then I’ll try and make a start

But tonight I’m wondering whether I
will wake one day and find
That I’ve spent all my life
Waiting till the time is right

When the time is right I’ll tell you that I’m sorry
When the time is right on that imaginary day
When the time is right and I ask for your forgiveness
When the time is right you’ll have forgotten anyway

When the time is right I’m gonna pop the question
When the time is right I’ll sing a different song
When the time is right I’ll leave the job I’m doing
When the time is right and I’m sure nothing can go wrong
