Time oh time, yes 
I need more time
Why do you keep on fleeting away?
I hear the wind chimes jangle in my mind
Oh how I wish you stay
Look at the time, it's after five, soon the day is over
Mr.Magic said,"We'd meet before the rise"
I recall when 60 minutes used to be an hour
As usual I find myself reading sky"Never mind", 
I said to myself
Never, never mind, 
I'm not owned by myself
Many have these feelings, they remain on the shelf
How can I be sure?
Time oh time, yes 
I need more time
Why do you keep on fleeting away?
I hear the wind chimes jangle in my mind
Oh how I wish you could stay
Sitting around 
I hear no sound, only the clock is ticking
Seconds turn to minutes purely on their own
When asleep and all is dark, 
I spend my dreaming wishing
I got a feeling 
I'm not all alone
Time oh time, yes 
I need more time
Why do you keep on fleeting away?
I hear the wind chimes jangle in my mind
Oh how I wish you will stay
Got a feeling, yes 
I'm reeling
I'm trying but 
I'm lying to myself
When I'm sitting and 
I'm thinking
How can I be sure?
How can I be sure?
Oh, time oh time, yes 
I need more time
Why do you keep on slipping away?
Time oh time, umpteens 
I have to time
Oh how I wish you will stay
Time oh time, yes 
I need more time
Why do you keep on slipping away?
I hear the wind chimes jangle in my mind
Oh how I wish you will stay
Oh, time oh time, what can 
I do?I find myself, 
I'm relying on you sometimes
I get in right, 
I follow through
Yea yea yea yea
Yea yeaI need these times slipping away
