Time Takes Time

if you question answers why answer questions half the truth equals the whole lie if you can't take it with you why leave it all behind time takes time wishful thinking leads to harsh realities constant daydreams awaken into nightmares a warm smile can heat a cold heart time takes time hesitate to procrastinate hurry up to slow it down fast as a snail's pace patience wins the race square it till its round be early late time takes time yesterday was the future tomorrow is now today is the past be first last fast is slow stop is go seconds creep by minutes slide hours fly years blow time takes time watches don't say clocks don't tell the roster crow's night to day the moon lights the sun shades leaving stays to forgive is divine but vengeance is the Lord's a penny for your thoughts and you get what you pay for constant entertainment makes life a bore why buy love when the world's a whore seldom comes always goes never is forever forever is never generations skip eras pass occasions last instance blink a phase stinks age slips time takes time if your down for the count will you measure up is seeing is believing can the blind have faith why is the ocean saline if it's the salt of the earth how does silence sound so loud time takes time
