Didn't have time to watch my life go by
Or to really get where my twenty years went
Didn't have time to say goodbye to a friend
Didn't have time to pack my bags right
To be ready to look at my face
At all the marks time leaves as it goes
It's too cowardly, it moves too fast, time flies and shoves me
To shape a man I'm not ready to recognize yet
It's too cowardly, it moves too fast, time flies and shoves me
To shape a man I don't wanna say is him
Didn't have time to truly learn how to love
To remember every skin I've touched
Or to know if there are hearts I've broken
Didn't have time to make the rounds of my neighborhood
I always wanted to go farther
Didn't have time to see what I may've missed
It's too cowardly, it moves too fast, time flies and shoves me
To shape a man I'm not ready to recognize yet
It's too cowardly, it moves too fast, time flies and shoves me
To shape a man I don't wanna say is him
With time you never go back
You can only regret what you should've done
I'd redo everything if I could do it again
Yeah, everything, if I could do it again
It gives you, then takes back, each second of its time
To live one minute you'll have to give back the one before
It gives you, then takes back, each second of its time
To live one minute you'll have to give back the one before
And the more it goes, the more I love it
This time that plays and carries me away
Day after day in a dance
Where every step is a chance
And the more it goes, the more I love it
This time that plays and pulls me along
Toward the one I wanted to be
With these dreams filling my head
It's too cowardly, it moves too fast, time flies and shoves me
To shape a man I'm not ready to recognize yet
It gives you, then takes back, each second of its time
To live one minute you'll have to give back the one before
