Time Machine

[intro] If I could build a time machine, I would go back in time Over and over, to spend more time with you – you are sublime Time is cruel, the cruelest for stealing you away from me And me away from you, you know it’s true – time is mean Maybe I don’t need a time machine, maybe what I want is a rewind Not a do-over, but a do-again, because, darling, let me remind I love you, I do, I will, I would, I hope to a whole bunch more But we don’t get either, so let’s value today, tomorrow, before Before I… before you… well, let’s not talk about that yet Because it chokes me up. We have our memories, don’t forget But the best is yet to come. It has to be, because we love each other So grab your paintbrush and meet me at the canvas we get to cover With colors bold and bright and as brave as our love and blueprinted by God above Let’s paint a picture with our words, brushes and love, with no push, with no shove Because I’m for you, because you’re for me, because together us are for our “we” We’re on display, for all to see, like it or not, so let’s shine and let’s be Brilliant and pointing the way toward the One who showed us what love is By giving up His life and laying it down unreservedly for His beloveds So, Lydia today is the day, tomorrow is the day, until the day I die I promise to be the best man I know how to be – raindrops in my sky Before I… before you… well, let’s not talk about that yet Because it chokes me up. We have our memories, don’t forget But the best is yet to come. It has to be, because we love each other So grab your paintbrush and meet me at the canvas we get to cover Above all, I’m glad for what you were, what you are and what we are together For richer or poorer, houseless or housed, Sicker or better, through all kinds of weather We are madly, irrevocably, no u-turns allowed, steak-dinner rich, sugar candy sweet Ridiculously, meticulously, unambiguslously, serendipitously, completely in love [outro] I promise to be the best man I know how to be – raindrops in my sky [chorus] Before I… before you… well, let’s not talk about that yet Because it chokes me up. We have our memories, don’t forget But the best is yet to come. It has to be, because we love each other Above all, I’m glad for what you were, what you are and what we are together For richer or poorer, homeless or home, Sicker or better, through all kinds of weather We are madly, irrevocably, no u-turns allowed, Ridiculously, meticulously, unambiguously, serendipitously... completely in love [outro]
