A Matter of Time
It can slip right through your fingers
As if it were made of sand
You can hold on tight to stop it
But it was never in your hands
In joy it takes too little
In pain it takes too much
At once it's never ending
And yet never enough
Time
Are you on my side?
As the hands keep spinning
As I question why
Time
As you pass me by
As the clock keeps ticking
It's all a matter of time
Though it breaks your heart to pieces
It can be what heals all wounds
And it's how we mark the distance
That's between me and you
It can be what makes us wiser
But it's what makes us forget
It can be saved in a memory
And it's wasted on regret
Time
Are you on my side?
As the hands keep spinning
As I question why
Time
As you pass me by
As the clock keeps ticking
It's all a matter of time
It's a race you're never winning
If you're chasing down the sun
Because when for you it's over
For someone it's just begun
Though it seems like we have plenty
We'll want more when it's gone
It can be like priceless currency
So what will you spend it on?
Time
Are you on my side?
As you move with reason
But without rhyme
Time
You pass me by
Through every season
It's all a matter of time
As if it were made of sand
You can hold on tight to stop it
But it was never in your hands
In joy it takes too little
In pain it takes too much
At once it's never ending
And yet never enough
Time
Are you on my side?
As the hands keep spinning
As I question why
Time
As you pass me by
As the clock keeps ticking
It's all a matter of time
Though it breaks your heart to pieces
It can be what heals all wounds
And it's how we mark the distance
That's between me and you
It can be what makes us wiser
But it's what makes us forget
It can be saved in a memory
And it's wasted on regret
Time
Are you on my side?
As the hands keep spinning
As I question why
Time
As you pass me by
As the clock keeps ticking
It's all a matter of time
It's a race you're never winning
If you're chasing down the sun
Because when for you it's over
For someone it's just begun
Though it seems like we have plenty
We'll want more when it's gone
It can be like priceless currency
So what will you spend it on?
Time
Are you on my side?
As you move with reason
But without rhyme
Time
You pass me by
Through every season
It's all a matter of time
