Time

Time is able to discern When long term love has had its turn And only then will drop the curtain Let the credits start to roll Her aura so imposing Had me in your bed and clothing Lukewarm caffeine in the morning "Can your brother take me home?" When we were pulling strings to keep her around Those were the days I didn't let you down Though love will run deep, like her, it 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, moulded 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 never will cease to console us So as you look back to where we began Loosening your grip a little on her hand Keep it in mind we owe her more than we could ever make apparent Rarely on our hands, still loved us hard Time, barely on our hands, still loved us hard Her care was constant Held us in her arms, she loved us 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 whole and 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
