Time Songtext
von Alex Bollard
Time Songtext
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours in an ugly way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying home to watch the rain
You were young and life was long
There is time to kill today
And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run You missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it′s sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath, but one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time has gone, the song is over
Thought I′d something more to say
Fritter and waste the hours in an ugly way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying home to watch the rain
You were young and life was long
There is time to kill today
And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run You missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it′s sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath, but one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time has gone, the song is over
Thought I′d something more to say
