[English]

I'm living my patience and my motivation

I put them on separate teams

Maybe I found someone I really need?

Well, baby, you with it or not

Not important, cause what you do to me

You help me find my sense of urgency

And time flies

I wish I would have met with someone psychic

'Cause my, my, it took some time for me to realize it

Cause today is yesterday's tomorrow

Why take any longer, the feeling's getting stronger

No, I can't wait, I can't wait anymore

Cause today is yesterday's tomorrow

I ain't Nostradamus, but the future is upon us

No, I can't wait, I can't wait anymore

Anymore, yeah

I know that you're hoping that this is The Notebook

But baby as you will see

Mr Gosling ain't got nothing on me

Like oh when alley, when Harry Met Sally

We knew this'd have to be

The kind of love that lasts eternally

And I know that some will say that it could end in heartbreak

But my dear, you only fear the chances that we don't take

Cause today is yesterday's tomorrow

Why take any longer, the feeling's getting stronger

No, I can't wait, I can't wait anymore

Cause today is yesterday's tomorrow

I ain't Nostradamus, but the future is upon us

No, I can't wait, I can't wait anymore

Anymore, yeah

...

Don't let it pass babe

'Cause the future comes fast yeah

Cause today is yesterday's tomorrow

Why take any longer longer, the feeling's getting stronger

No, I can't wait, I can't wait anymore

...

Cause today is yesterday's tomorrow

I ain't Nostradamus, but the future is upon us

No, I can't wait, I can't wait anymore

Anymore, yeah

Today is yesterday's tomorrow

...

Why take any longer

Why take longer, the feeling's getting stronger

Whoa yeah
