Lyrics
"Time"
(Lyrics - C. Webster, M Novak - Music - M. Novak)
Time is but a concept created by man
Sun and moon mark your life span
Like sand pouring grain by grain
Depleting we try to turn it over again
Time speed varies when you’re having fun
It slows to a crawl when there’ s work to be done
It goes by faster and faster as you age
Books are shorter as you turn each page
CHORUS:
Time it’s a change of seasons
Time is used for many reasons
Time it can’t be saved for later
Time it’s a destroyer and creator
Time has no meaning when we feel strong
Friends gone too early must admit when we're wrong
Time is slippery no matter your age
It counts down quickly as we exit the stage
Time goes in circles a face on a clock
It's hands keep movin’ and you cannot stop
Time is now digital in this new age
But does not change the fact you gotta leave the stage
CHORUS:
Time causes changes you see in the mirror
Your time will be up when it becomes clear
Tell your loved ones what they mean to you
Once they're gone you'll know that they knew
Change your priorities to ones that matter
Listen to your heart, and ignore others chatter
Be kind to yourself, cause time is short
Open your heart it's not a fort
Time can mend and conceal
Be patient, use your time to heal
Time is a gem keep it close and at hand
When its all over more you will demand
CHORUS:
