With Me

If time was measured by money
and I had a never ending supply
would you try hard to get it
or just steal enough to get by 
If time was measured by food
and I had enough to feed the world
would you want to keep it for yourself
or take just a little and move on
If time was measured by touching
would you always want to feel me close
or just take my hand for a little while
then eventually let me go
