Lyrics
Time Waits
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Time wasted, wasted worrying
Hurrying down the same street
Time beats with every moment
Eroding from under my feet
Time waits, it waits for no one
And here I sit, Im standing still
Time waits
Id like to go on but Im out of time
My own doubt eats a hole
From the inside out through my plans
Work it out, I need to now
But I dont know how to begin
Time waits, it waits for no one
And here I sit, Im standing still
Time waits
Id like to go on but Im out of time
And if I could make it stop
Or if I could have what Ive lost
In time
