Minutes and hours keep on tickin' past |
|
The moves you make today could be your last. |
|
If you're still gambling with, what ain't yours, |
|
If I were you I wouldn't feel that good. * |
|
Well it's the same thing everywhere I go |
|
The same old story, it don't take long to show, oh no |
|
Do you think that I can't see through your veil |
|
Well try to realize you feel your pain |
|
You find it telling people, what's to gain? |
|
Watch out that it won't blow up in your face |
|
Well it's the same thing everywhere I go |
|
The same old story, it don't take long to show, oh no |
|
Give what you can |
|
Take what you need, after the harvest |
|
You must plant a seed |
|
Take what comes |
|
Sunshine or rain don't waste your time |
|
It won't come again |
|
Ah, sisters brothers, friends and others, passing through my days |
|
Give 'em time to remind, in so many ways |
|
Just like a sparrow, not colorful nor beautiful |
|
You can drown me in your song |
|
Like the sun in the rain, oh yea |
|
Minutes and hours they don't make up the time |
|
That you spend from the day your born until you die |
|
Your time is made up from the things that you do |
|
Some people live a life well that's up to you |
|
Well it's the same thing everywhere I go |
|
The same old story, it don't take long to show, oh no |
