Time (时光)

Today I'm closing up the house
cause it don't feel like home
The harder twilight pulls at me
the less I wanna go
They say that all the streets of heaven
are paved with gold
That's just to hurry up us folks
that get too old

Time gets me wound up
like a clock inside my head
Time gets me sponning my own wheels
And when I think that there ain't one more inch
this worn out heart can give
Time's gonna teach me how it feels

Watch your hands they don't get caught
I'm bout to close this door
You bright young kids are all I got
and now I know what for
You'll see that love's the only thing
we're got to show
Time will just run out but love I know

Time gets you wound up
like a clock inside your head
Time gets you spinning your own wheels
And while you're losing what you found
you're finding out that's what you need
Time's gonna teach you how it feels

I know your father's watching
He's saving me a place right by his side
And that you don't like to hear that kind a talk
But it ain't up to me to hide
Don't make it hard for me to go
Don't make it hard for me

This house has seen some fifly years
Atop the same old soil
But houses are just houses child
Its people are what's loyal
You'll see that love's the only thing
we've got to show
Time will just run out but love I know

Time gets you wound up
like a clock inside your head
Time gets you sponning your own wheels
And when you think that there ain't one more inch
your worn out heart can give
Time's gonna teach you how it feels
