If Time Were On My Side

if time were on my side
i would caress the beauty
of your touch
as if it were all 
that i could ever feel

if time were on my side
i would know that this day
this moment
was all that i mattered
the only illusion we value is tomorrow

if time were on my side
i would count the dollars less
and  share the pennies more
with those that have not
without time nothing becomes everything
