Lyrics
Time
Here's the sun that breaks through the window
And here's the shadow we think that we shun
And here's the curtain that blocks out a memory
And here's the road we get on to run
Time
Time
Oh time
You never knew me so why do you run
(Tick tock, tick tock)
Run through the morning
(Tick tock, tick tock)
Run through the dark
(Tick tock, tick tock)
Lifting the awning
Gather my people and run to the ark
Yeah, oh yeah?
I'm not a number
I'm a free man
I'm not a number
(But who's number one?)
Time
Is it time?
Is it time now?
If it ain't time it must be someone
(Tick tock, tick tock)
Run through the morning
(Tick tock, tick tock)
Run through the dark
(Tick tock, tick tock)
Lifting the awning
Gather my people and run to the ark
Yeah, oh yeah
I'm a living soul
I'm a river going to the sea
I'm a living soul
So let me be
Time
Oh time
Oh time
Is my worst enemy
(You are my worst enemy)
And here's the shadow that breaks through the window
And here's the shadow we think that we shun
And here's the curtain that blocks out a memory
