Lyrics
This is the first time that
I must choose to question Time.
For it seems unjust and premature,
so much love, so little time.
What time we were given
was sent to us from up on high
it held a lifetime of feeling
I just can’t deny.
*
TIME SAID,
“MY SON, IT’S TIME TO GO”
BUT I THOUGHT OF YOU,
AND I SAID “NO”
BUT TIME GRABBED MY ARM,
AND HE DRUG ME AWAY.
BUT I LEFT MY HEART
WITH YOU, ANYWAY
Oh the path that led me to you
also sent me on my way.
And it will lead me back
to you and my heart one day.
*
SO IF YOU THINK OF ME
AND WONDER WHAT YOU CAN DO
JUST OPEN YOUR HEART FOR ME
AND I’LL OPEN MINE FOR YOU
Please be gentle, now,
cause there’s a hole in my chest
And I will return to fill it
with the love that you possess
*
