Lyrics for Time: The Beginning

Father time, I'm running late I'm winding down, I'm growing tired Seconds drift into the night The clock just ticks till my time expires You were once my friend Now I know I can't tie your hands The days I saved I couldn't spend They fell like sand through the hourglass No time to lose, no time to choose Time taking time, it's taken mine Scenes of my life seem so unkind Time chasing time creeps up behind I can't run forever and time waits for no one Not even me An enemy I can't defend My final place, a deadly end Life is just a speck in space Dreams of an eternal resting place I can't get any younger Time has brutal hunger Time taking time, it's taken mine Scenes of my life seem so unkind Time chasing time creeps up behind I can't run forever and time waits for no one, waits for no one Not even me...
