Keeping Time

I’ve been having trouble keeping time
A whole thought’s a half-step behind
I slow it down and seem to miss my spot
In the meantime
I’m running, tripping, busy buying-in to it all
A stop in New York wasn’t what I thought it’d be
Wish I could see it through your eyes
Wish I could see it through
I know the moon isn’t there for me to hold on to
Now I keep watching people pass me by
It pulls the focus from the corner of my eye
So I’m using horoscopes to plan my life
There’s got to be something bigger than me, than you
I know the moon isn’t there for me to hold on to
It’s true
I know the moon isn’t there for me to hold on to
Well I’ve been having trouble keeping time, keeping time, keeping time
And I’ve been having trouble keeping time, keeping time
Oh, I’ve been having trouble keeping time, keeping time, keeping time
And I’ve been having trouble, I’ve been having trouble
Every time I close my eyes
Another year passes by
Every time I close my eyes
Another year passes by
Every time I close my eyes
Another year passes by
Every time I close my eyes
It’s true
I know the moon isn’t there for me to hold on to see less
