Time stands still for no one
i'm behind again
i push and still i see
i'm getting nowhere quick
i'm staying late
again
worlds turn in the time
i catch another breath
i know a little more will
surely do the trick
i can't delay
no i can't be late
i can't take the time
but i plan to when i'm done
i can't waste the day
nothing ventured nothing
i don't think it's wise
to be idle when you're young
oh i have to go
i'll have time to live tomorrow
take a message for me
tell the wife i'm sorry
deadline's almost here
and there'll be more recitals
anyway there are bills to pay
i can't take the time
but i plan to when i'm done
i can't waste the day
nothing ventured nothing
i don't think it's wise
to be idle when you're young
oh i have to go
i'll have time to live tomorrow
i have to go
angels spread my wings
and see the fences tumble
ageless memories
they watch the strong man crumble at my feet
what is this i see
i can't take the time
but i plan to when i'm done
i can't waste the day
nothing ventured nothing
i don't think it's wise
to be idle when you're young
oh i have to go
i'll have time to live tomorrow
