Time is able to discern when long-term love has had its turn

And only then we'll drop the curtain, let the credits start to roll

Her aura's so imposin', had me in your bed and clothin'

Lukewarm caffeine in the mornin'

Can your brother take me home?

When we were pullin' strings to keep her around

Those were the days I didn't let it down

Though love will run deep like hurt runs out

Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard

Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard and for the longest

Held us in her arms, she loved us hard

Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard and for the longest

Raised us, shaped us

Molded and made us into who we are today

And who we plan to stay

(Time) Met us in December, made your name one to remember

Now though only here to cool the embers

She will never cease to console us

So as you look back to where we began

Loosenin' your grip a little on her hand

Keep it in mind we owe her more

Than we could ever make apparent (Time)

Barely on our hands, still loved us hard (Hard)

Time barely on our hands, still loved us hard

Her care was constant

Held us in her arms, she loved us hard (Hard)

Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard and for the longest

And was nobody's but ours

May part of me live on in you

Let your heart bleed and be an open wound

We know time will tend to

And as part of you lives on in me

I'm holdin' broken to the same degree

Knowing time will mend me

Raised us, shaped us

Moulded and made us into who we are today

And who we plan to stay

Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard

Know as she turns to depart

She loved us hard and for the longest

Held us in her arms, she loved us hard

So know as she turns to depart

She loved us hard and for the longest

And was nobody's but ours
