[Verse 1]
Time, be my friend, be my friend
Though I have not been so kind to you
Always asked where you were going
Though you had no way of knowing
Oh no time, I have not been kind to you
[Verse 2]
Time, meet me here, I'll meet you here
And we'll go walking for a little while
And I know what I will say
I know there's only now and yesterday
Oh time, I'll meet you here
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause when I thought that I was alone
You snapped your fingers and a tree came into bloom
And the sun came by to fill my room, oh time
[Chorus]
You will never tell me somеthing that has not happened yet
And you will nеver make a promise, but I can get just what I get
And you will never say you love me
You will never say you love me
But I can love just what I get
[Verse 3]
Time, I'll make it up to you this time
And we'll go walking down that wide country road
And I will be your brave companion
Your adventurous D'Artagnan
I will be your best receiver
Your goldenest retriever
I'll remember what you taught me
And those treasures that you brought me
Most of all, a lifetime of friends
It came together when I asked you to be one of them
Oh time, be my friend
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause when I thought that I was alone
You snapped your fingers and a tree came into bloom
And the sun came by to fill my room, oh time
[Chorus]
You will never tell me something that has not happened yet
You will never make a promise, but I can get just what I get
You will never say you love me
You will never say you love me
You will never say you love me
But let's see what's round the bend
