Time

Time to get up
Time to get up, now
And let the bones
Crack into place

I look in the mirror
I see an old man
But in my eyes
A young man's face

Time, time, time, time
It never was mine, mine, mine, mine
But you know what is?
Love
Hope
Breath
And dreams
As cliche as that seems

Look at this dress
It was my favorite
Because my mother hated it
So much

So I'll give it to my daughter
And she'll give it to her daughter
It's a piece of me that they can touch
When I'm gone

Time, time, time, time
It never was mine, mine, mine, mine
But you know what is?
Sky (Sky)
Light (Light)
Red (Red)
Morning light
And that is why we fight
To keep going
Keep running
Keep standing
Keep believing
Keep learning
Keep hoping

I wanna run like my legs used to run
Breathing in, breathing out
My arms stretched out
And I wanna know
That my old heart can grow like spring again
A new beginning

But here I am
The same inside
The pain is chipping
But the foundation's alright

I wanna run like my legs used to run
I wanna run to you

I wanna run like my legs used to run (Time, time, time, time)
I wanna run to you (Time, time, time, time)

Keep going (Time, time, time, time)
Keep loving (Time, time, time, time)
Keep standing (Time)
Keep moving (It never was mine)

Time, time, time, time
It never was mine
Time, time, time, time (To get up)
Time (To get up now)
