Time Is Not On Our Side
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.
You’re getting better, better
At guessing letters, letters
I'm writing with my fingers now
And we’re just watching, watching
Dust on the curtain, curtain
Illuminated, falling down
Now we've got the doors closed and you're telling me
You are mine and you’ll go anywhere with me
Tell me, can we stay right here and never leave?
I could go on and on
But time is not on our side
Waiting for the light
Night after night
Night after night
And I know
I will slip away
Day after day
Day after day
Till we're old
All I wanna do
Is lie next to you
Lie next to you and stay close
But time is not on our side
Looking in your eyes
Night after night
Night after night
And I see
Where I gotta stay
Day after day
Day after day
To find peace
All I gotta do
Is lie next to you
Lie next to you and just breathe
But time is not on our side
We never wake up, wake up
We only stay up, stay up
And let the seconds chase us down
But we're learning, learning
Nothing's certain, certain
So can we stop the clock for now?
Now we've got the doors closed and you're telling me
You are mine and you’ll go anywhere with me
Tell me, can we stay right here and never leave?
I could go on and on
But time is not on our side
Waiting for the light
Night after night
Night after night
And I know
I will slip away
Day after day
Day after day
Till we're old
All I wanna do
Is lie next to you
Lie next to you and stay close
But time is not on our side
Looking in your eyes
Night after night
Night after night
And I see
Where I gotta stay
Day after day
Day after day
To find peace
All I gotta do
Is lie next to you
Lie next to you and just breathe
But time is not on our side
Oh no
Time is not on our side
And I could go on and on
Time is not on our side
Waiting for the light
Night after night
Night after night
And I know
I will slip away
Day after day
Day after day
Till we're old
All I wanna do
Is lie next to you
Lie next to you and stay close
But time is not on our side
Looking in your eyes
Night after night
Night after night
And I see
Where I gotta stay
Day after day
Day after day
To find peace
All I gotta do
Is lie next to you
Lie next to you and just breathe
But time is not on our side
'Cause time is not on our side
