TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE
I saw you down at the opening
You came over for a while
Radiant in a long silk dress
Oh how I love to see your style
But I can see that you are hungry
I can see you holding back
But time waits for no one
You better get it while you can
A sunbeam bursts through and targets
The painted rose on your arm
Weaving dreams into harvest bales
Yeah I love to see you smile
But I can see that you are hungry
I can see you holding back
But time waits for no one
You better get it while you can
Your auburn hair sweeps and covers
An upturned nose, a crooked mouth
Feeding your birds on a windswept beach
Before they all fly south
And I can see that you are hungry
And I can see you turning back
But time waits for no one
You better get it while you can
Yeah time waits for no one
You better get it while you can
