[Verse 1]
Life slow down
You’ve gone too fast
And words begin to mean a little less

Bones stay strong
Cause the road ahead is long
And every voice will miss us when we’re gone

[Hook]
Take a portrait, 25 let me hear you singing it out
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba [x2]
Let me hear you singing it out
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

[Verse 2]
Skin don’t stretch
It’s way too new
And those who look back are only the fools

[Hook 2]
Take a portrait, 25 let me hear you singing it out
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Yeah I’m singing it out
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Let me hear you singing it out
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba [x2]

[Verse 3]
Years don’t come too soon
And days be long and light
Future you can wait
Cause time’s still on our side

[Hook 3]
Take a portrait, 25 let me hear you singing it out
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba [x2]
Let me hear you singing it out
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Yeah you’re singing it out
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

[Outro]
Oh sing it out (Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
You’re free to come alive (Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
You’re free to come tonight (Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)

Take That

One of Britain’s most successful boy bands, Take That are an English pop group from Manchester, formed in 1990. The group currently consists of Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, and Mark Owen. The original line-up also featured Jason Orange and Robbie Williams.

Back in the 90s, they achieved unparalleled success, recording three albums which topped the UK Everything Changes and Nobody Else and Greatest Hits. Some of their biggest hits from then include “Back for Good”, “Pray”, “Everything Changes”, “A Million Love Songs” as well as covers of “Relight My Fire” by Dan Hartman and “It Only Takes a Minute” by Tavares.

Their popularity was unsurpassed in Britain. But tensions started growing and Robbie Williams left the band in 1995. The group disbanded the following year after the four remaining members completed their world tour.
