Time oh time, yes I need more time

Why do you keep on fleeting away?

I hear the wind chimes jangle in my mind

Oh how I wish you stay

Look at the time, it's after five, soon the day is over

Mr.Magic said,"We'd meet before the rise"

I recall when 60 minutes used to be an hour

As usual I find myself reading sky

"Never mind", I said to myself

Never, never mind, I'm not owned by myself

Many have these feelings, they remain on the shelf

How can I be sure?

Time oh time, yes I need more time

Why do you keep on fleeting away?

I hear the wind chimes jangle in my mind

Oh how I wish you could stay

Sitting around I hear no sound, only the clock is ticking

Seconds turn to minutes purely on their own

When asleep and all is dark, I spend my dreaming wishing

I got a feeling I'm not all alone

Time oh time, yes I need more time

Why do you keep on fleeting away?

I hear the wind chimes jangle in my mind

Oh how I wish you will stay

Got a feeling, yes I'm reeling

I'm trying but I'm lying to myself

When I'm sitting and I'm thinking

How can I be sure?

How can I be sure?

Oh, time oh time, yes I need more time

Why do you keep on slipping away?

Time oh time, umpteens I have to time

Oh how I wish you will stay

Time oh time, yes I need more time

Why do you keep on slipping away?

I hear the wind chimes jangle in my mind

Oh how I wish you will stay

Oh, time oh time, what can I do?

I find myself, I'm relying on you sometimes

I get in right, I follow through

Yea yea yea yea

Yea yea

I need these times slipping away
