Borrowed Time

Times ticking, no-ones watching
We are living on borrowed time
Places to go, people to see
Yet never seem to have time.

Plenty to do, what awful crime
Can't seem to balance time
Times ticking, no-ones watching
Heaven awaiting, angels humming
The gate keeper is coming.

Must learn to cherish time
Got to be humble and kind
Can't waste any more time
Be grateful for every moment in time.
