Time

Sitting out like a burning rope: life's getting short Lounge on out while I write a joke. Though I'm not that sort And time - it came a 'walking Right on down the road And I know that, time's a good friend Because time, wont let me go Good friends I've had a few: enemies no less If only together we could sit simply Once again And time - it came a 'walking Right on down the road And I know that, time's a good friend Because time, wont let me go I remember carousels, and merry go rounds And though I want to stay Change has called out to me now And time - it came a 'walking Right on down the road And I know that time's a good friend Because time, wont let me go I've seen your face I've heard your voice Oh to live again Thought spring had just begun But it's really summers end And time- it came for you Gently on down the road And I know that: time's a stranger Because time, it let you go Worse days I've had a few, but better less Never thought to keep good count It didn't matter in the end And time: it came for me Shooting out like a shot from a gun And I know that: time's a good friend Time and I, we had good fun
