“Time”
Like a wave crashing into the shore
You wash away my dreams
Time, why you walk away?
Like a friend with somewhere to go
You left me crying
Can you teach me about tomorrow
And all the pain and sorrow
Running free?
‘Cause tomorrow’s just another day
And I don’t believe in time
Time, I don’t understand
Children killing in the street
Dying for the color of a rag
Time, take their red and blue
Wash them in the ocean, make them clean
Maybe their mothers won’t cry tonight
Can you teach me about tomorrow
And all the pain and sorrow
Running free?
But tomorrow’s just another day
And I don’t believe in
Time is wasting
Time is walking
You ain’t no friend of mine
I don’t know where I’m goin’
I think I’m out of my mind
Thinking about time
If I die tomorrow, yeah
Just lay me down to sleep
Time is wasting
Time is walking
You ain’t no friend of mine
I don’t know where I’m goin’
I think I’m out of my mind
Thinking about time
Time, you left me standing there
Like a tree growing all alone
The wind just stripped me bare, stripped me bare
Time, the past has come and gone
The future’s far away
Now only lasts for one second, one second
Can you teach me about tomorrow
And all the pain and sorrow
Running free?
‘Cause tomorrow’s just another day
And I don’t believe in time
Time, you ain’t no friend of mine
I don’t know where I’m goin’
I think I’m outta my mind
Walkin’, wastin’ you ain’t no friend of mine
I don’t know where I’m goin’ oh no, no, no
Time without courage
And power without faith
Is just wasted, wasted, wasted time
Time, why you punish me?
