Well, call me if you want to talk
There's a telephone on your wall
And the reasons are many
And not too far apart
If there's some blood left in your heart
Well, let our loving finally start
If you run, you can catch me
Well, he's wide but not too sharp
I want to hear the whistle blow and feelings go
I want to be done with everything I know
Difference is time
It's the past, present and waiting in line
Difference is time
It's yours and it's especially mine
difference is time
And it's hard to stand on my feet
With this weight of vagrancy
I've been trying to tell the difference
Between the road and my street
But there's an end I shouldn't eat
When I'm done dancing to this beat
On my headstone it'll be written
"Life is hard, even if you cheat."
I want to hear the whistle blow and the feet is row
I want to be done with everyone I know
The difference is time
It's the past, present and waiting in line
Difference is time
It's yours and it's especially mine
Difference is time, woah
Difference is time
Don't act like there ain't nothing wrong
With a switch like that
It's just mean to keep it on
Don't act like there ain't nothing wrong
With a switch like that
It's just mean to keep it on
Difference is time
It's the past, present and waiting in line
Difference is time
It's yours and it's especially mine
Difference is time
It's the past, present and waiting in line
Difference is time
I know she's yours but she's especially mine
Difference is time, woah
Difference is time
Difference is time
Difference is time
She ain't yours and she sure ain't mine
She ain't yours and she sure ain't mine
Difference all the time
Difference all the time
