It's About Time (norse-vikingF)

[instrumental intro] [verse] Time waits for no one, yet we waste it all away At a minute to midnight, we dread the coming day The clock ticks on, marking our every moment lost A stitch in time saves nine, but there's a hidden cost [verse] Time flies when you're having fun, but crawls when you're feeling blue We're racing against the clock, what are we supposed to do? Some make hay while the sun shines, others just sleep in instead Time is money, yet often how we spend it is misled [chorus] People may not remember you, but remember how you made them feel Inspire with your words each day. The way you affect them is really real. We never know which words that those around us need to hear But simple words that encourage them can last them year to year. [verse] The early bird will catch the worm, the second mouse gets cheese If procrastination is our game, then we'll pay with hidden fees We're burning the midnight oil, but still we fall behind Plan and look ahead, lacking vision makes us blind [verse] Is it the amount of breaths we take, or moments that take our breath away We try to turn back time, but age shows up anyway Time may heal all wounds, but we still remember pain Time is the master thief, stealing moments we'll never regain [chorus] People may not remember you, but remember how you made them feel Inspire with your words each day. The way you affect them is really real. We never know which words that those around us need to hear But simple words that encourage them can last them year to year. [verse] We're caught up in the cycle, of weeks, even hours or days Trying to make sense of our ever hopeless, fleeting ways But time just slips away, like falling sand in an hourglass And then we're left with nothing. Our memories are a masterclass [verse] Time is just a journey that we're all just passing through Trying to make our lasting mark, before our ending time is due We're all chasing the clock, but it's also chasing us too In this endless race for time, what are we gonna do? [chorus] People may not remember you, but remember how you made them feel Inspire with your words each day. The way you affect them is really real. We never know which words that those around us need to hear But simple words that encourage them can last them year to year. [outro][fade out] [end]
