about time

time
racin' on just like a rocket
i'm
standing here without a clue
maybe someday in a crisp clairvoyant moment
i will see
but not today
i'm just stuck here in this

time
ain't no friend to me today
i
could get hung all over you
maybe someday i can reconcile my feelings
i will be
but not today
i'm just stuck here in this

(chorus)
time, like a river, like an ocean
tossed about from shore to shore
and i don't know where i'm going
i am older than you
and the messages are true
but there's no time

time
keeps me on this lonely island
i'm
trying to shake the bitter blues
maybe someday i can make sense of the madness
i'll be free
but not today
i'm just stuck here in this

(chorus)
time, like a river, like an ocean
tossed about from shore to shore
and i don't know where i'm going
i am older than you
and the messages are true
but there's no time
