Deep dark cosmos
You know time
Moves faster or slower
Depends who's high or low
It depends
Deep dark cosmos
You know I
Got the formula now
One minute I said
A minute more of time
One minute delay
And then I'll be just fine
One minute I gave
With a notice on it to rewind
Deep dark cosmos
You know time
That slippery thing
The tragedy of summer
Is losing the spring
One minute to find you
While you're in town
One minute to save you
Or let you down
One minute to conquer
One minute to drown
One minute to love you
One minute to love you
One minute to please you
And one minute to cry
And what am I meant to cling to
With one minute to die?
One minute to love you
One minute to love you
One minute to love you
And then it's gone
And nothing but old news
Deep dark cosmos
You know time
That slippery thing
The tragedy of summer
Is losing the spring
