Time
Intro Chorus
Time is a fleeting reference
Daunting and insurmountable
Leaving little marks of nothingness
So heavy in my heart
Part 1
Sometimes I wait for you
Although I know that you are gone
Sometimes I wonder if you ever
Think of me on lonely nights
Sometimes I want it all undone
But I know I can’t go back
Sometimes I regret the holding on
And others times, the letting go
There are even times I wonder
If I could just change the hurt
There are just so many things
I can’t accept in my brief history
Chorus (Part 1)
Yesterday is a tidal pool
Dangerous and deep
I can’t get caught in yesterday
It is a burden I can’t keep
Part 2
Sometimes the weight of waiting
Strangles desire in its grip
Sometimes the crouching fear of fortune
Casts a shadow on my path
Sometimes anticipation
Leaps upon faith’s fragile shoulders
Sometimes another day of rain
Drowns out the impending sun
There are even time I wonder
If I can change my destiny
Can I scream out with my desire
And thereby cast my vote
Chorus (Part 2)
Tomorrow is a fantasy
Full of fears and dreams
Vapor visions and illusion
Crash headlong into my reality
Part 3
Sometimes I wait for someone
To come and change my day
Sometimes I wait for someday
When I will finally change my way
How then shall I face these fears
And place the seed in fertile soil
How shall I lay it all to rest
Turn my nightmares into dreams
In the end all that I have
Is faith in faith alone
I’ll believe I’ll let it guide me on
And take my place in time and space.
Chorus (Part 3)
Today is just another day
With challenges to meet
I must be bold and face this day
Taking destiny upon my feet
Concluding Chorus
Time is a fleeting reference
Not mine to understand
Leaving little marks of nothingness
And lightening my stride
