Time Waits For No One
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.
We've got a long way to go before we get there
And though we're all exhausted from the ride
Just remember that our prize is waiting somewhere
And time is never on our side
It creeps in like a thief and slowly drains you
You can't escape its clutches though you try
So we must hurry up to see our plan through
Before the clock runs out on us
So hurry up, it's now or bust!
Time waits for no one!
So we're always on the run
Gotta stay one step ahead and go
Life ain't a cakewalk
Always playing beat the clock
Around and when it stops well no one knows
We're searching for a legendary fountain
They say Ponce de Leon once found the spring
But time took him away at 47
And so for now we must keep on searching
Well time is a cruel and vicious enemy
It takes from us most everything we love
And that's why my crew of faithful men and me
Must finally put it to an end
So those who fell can be avenged!
Time waits for no one!
So we're always on the run
Gotta stay one step ahead and go
Life ain't a cakewalk
Always playing beat the clock
Around and when it stops well no one knows
Time keeps marching on
It never stops
With each night and new dawn
Come laughing clocks
No man can stop the hands of time
This savage crook, it takes our lives!
Time waits for no one!
So we're always on the run
Gotta stay one step ahead and go
Life ain't a cakewalk
Always playing beat the clock
Around and when it stops well no one knows
Time waits for no one!
So we're always on the run
Gotta stay one step ahead and go
Life ain't a cakewalk
Always playing beat the clock
Around and when it stops well no one knows
