NOTHING BUT TIME

VERSE 1
Who am I / to presume
What you think / deep inside
I can't say / that I do
I'd be wrong / if I tried
VERSE 2
Spending nights / in the past
Is my life / frozen cold
Dropping sand / in a glass
Nothing real / left to hold
REFRAIN
I can wait a long time for you girl
I've got all of the time in the world
VERSE 3
When you taught / me to sway
In the dance, / holding time
Like the moon / changing phase
Planets fall / into line
REFRAIN
I can wait a long time for you girl
I've got all of the time in the world
Lead
VERSE 4
Now it seems / like a day
But it feels / long ago
And the clock / has no face
Silent time / moving slow
REFRAIN
I can wait a long time for you girl
I've got all of the time in the world
INTERLUDE
I’ve got nothing but time / to give to you girl
I’ve got all of the time / in the world
Nothing but time / to give to you girl
I’ve got all of the time / in the world
Repeat / End.
