Lyrics

Bittersweet, TN

[Verse 1: Erin Rae]

Devoted my life to the passing of time

Crossed over county to the Missouri line

And how does one sail on the waves of time?

Hey there sailor, can I hitch a ride?

[Pre-Chorus: Erin]

There was a time when you were mine

Oh, there was a time when you were mine

There was a time when you were mine

Oh, there was a time, well have one on me

[Chorus: Erin]

[Verse 2: Kevin Morby]

Goddamn, you got old, you got upset, you got sick

The living took forever, but the dying went quick

And oh, just to think you were a little kid

Wondering what you'd be when you got big

[Pre-Chorus: Kevin & Erin, Kevin]

And there was no time, suddenly

Oh, there was no time, suddenly

There was no time, suddenly

Oh, there was no time, well have one on me

[Chorus: Kevin]

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge: Erin, Kevin]

There was no time

There was no time

There was no time

There was no time

[Verse 3: Kevin, Erin]

To free the flame from burning up inside

To thunder like a motorcycle headed down the line

To eat, to weep, to lay me down so sweet

To sow, to reap, or to let our glasses clink

[Pre-Chorus: Kevin, Erin, Both]

To time

To time, to time

To time, to time

To time, to time

To time

[Chorus:Erin, Both]
