When The Time Comes

Tom Petty · You're Gonna Get It [1978]

This might sound strange, might seem dumb

Depends on the side that you take it in from

Depends on the time, depends on the day

Depends on a lot of things, who can say



(Chorus)

I just want to let you know that I will stand by you

Through whatever might come, wherever you run

Will you stand by me when the time comes



Baby do you understand, am I making this clear

Are you tuning me out cause I'm coming off weird

Well I don't care that's all right

That's okay, I don't mind



(Chorus)



This ain't the right time to say what's on my mind

I know, but I look in your eyes

And there is no real life at all

Baby hold on



And someday soon you'll come around

You know where I can be found

When you heart feels right, seek me out

We can talk more then babe, but right now



(Chorus)
