Time Waits

(álbum: Big Kiss Goodnight - 2011)

Listen to me, boy
The future's bright
What they say is true
But don't lose sight
Time won't wait for you
Can't let the hands of time
Slip right through these hands of mine

I was once young and bright eyed just like you
Scared to step into the world because everything was new
And then I woke up
Opened my eyes
Came to the realization that everything must die

'Cause time waits
Time waits for no man
Time waits for no man

Old man, you've got to wake up
In the blink of an eye, your life's passed you by
What's left to show?
The future is uncertain and you're dying slow
Can't let this life you live
Slip right through your finger tips

'Cause I was once young and bright eyed just like you
Scared to step into the world because everything was new
And then I woke up
Opened my eyes
Came to the realization that everything must die

Time waits
Time waits for no man
Time waits for no man
Time waits for no man, go!

I was trying to be what's expected of me
When the ground fell out from under my feet
I've got to do my own thing
Live my life for me
Why can't you understand?
Time waits for no
