about

It’s not a bad idea to figure out what we want out of life so we can make the most of it while we’re in it.

lyrics

BROKEN HEART BROKEN WHEEL
TIME WON'T WAIT IT SURE CAN HEAL

LONELY MAN LONELY LIFE
IT'S ALL GONE TO PLAN
IN SPITE OF THE STRIFE

IF TIME CAN'T HEAL YOU ON THE PATH YOU’RE TRAVELLING
YOU BETTER CHANGE TACK, IT'S TIME TO KNOW
IF YOU DIDN’T FEEL YOUR PLANS UNRAVELLING

NOW WHEN YOU LOOK BACK IT’S SO LONG AGO
AND ONE THING MORE, FOLKS IT'S FOR SURE
TIME WON'T WAIT

YOUNGER YEARS THEY WON'T STAY
UNLIKE TEARS YOU CAN'T WASH AWAY
THE HERE AND NOW SURE YOU CAN,
THO IT'S LONG PAST THE HOUR
FOR US TO MAKE A STAND

IF YOU DON’T REACH THE STARS YOUR BLEEDING FOR
THERE’S ONLY ONE PLACE TO FALL - IT'S NOT BAD AT ALL
IF WE LET IT TEACH THE GIFTS WE’RE NEEDING NOW
WHEN YOU HOLD OUT YOUR HAND , TRY TO STAND
WALK THROUGH THE DOOR, ONE THINGS FOR SURE

EVERYONE CAN FEEL THE PULL
ANYONE CAN ACT THE FOOL BUT TIME WON'T WAIT

AND IF YOU SEE THE DARK CLOUDS GATHERING
WELL YOU BETTER RUN FAST, THIS STORM WON'T PASS
OVER THE SEEDS THEY ALL NEED WATERING
YOU JUST GOTTA ACT AS A MATTER OF FACT
BEFORE YOU GO SOMETHING TO KNOW
DON’T YOU MOVE TO SLOW COS
TIME WON'T WAIT

ANYONE CAN LOSE THE PLOT,
ANY MINUTE THE CLOCK COULD STOP,
BUT TIME WON'T WAIT
