Time: The Beginning

[Verse 1]

Father time, I'm running late

I'm winding down, I'm growing tired

Seconds drift into the night

The clock just ticks 'til my time expires

You were once my friend

Now I know I can't tie your hands

[Verse 2]

The days I saved I couldn't spend

They fell like sand through the hourglass

No time to lose, no time to choose

[Chorus]

Time taking time, it's taken mine

Scenes of my life seem so unkind

Time chasing time creeps up behind

I can't run forever, and time waits for no one

Not even me

[Verse 3]

An enemy I can't defend

My final days, a deadly end

Life is just a speck in space

Dreams of an eternal resting place

I can't get any younger

Time has brutal hunger

[Chorus]

Time taking time, it's taken mine

Scenes of my life seem so unkind

Time chasing time creeps up behind

I can't run forever, and time waits for no one

Waits for no one

Not even me
