It's About Time -

I’m supposed to show what I’m made of

by throwing myself down the steps of love

and if I did all that I wouldn’t get much back

because I crave more than touch

I want a meeting

between beings

I’ve stolen every view I’ve ever seen

a collection of things

that I can bring to… any conversation

if you’re listening, good luck

sitting at the coffee house with nothing to talk about

I think we’ve aged ten years, in one.

when you find love you say that

It’s about time

when your love moves away

It’s about time

and as your love explains

It’s about time

the subject of your pain

It’s about time

it’s suppose to snow

and ice skate rentals

are buy one, get one free

sometimes it’s good to know

that some things that are frozen

can be thawed, eventually

and that there comes a season

where we’ll need a boat to get across

but for now we skate the frozen lake

and as you glide, you dip and you dive and I fantasize

about the post holiday.

do a figure eight,

see if I’m here when you turn around

when you find love you say that

It’s about time

when your love moves away

It’s about time

and as your love explains

It’s about time

the subject of your pain

It’s about time

how will you love me

when I am not beautiful

will you leave me when I’m silver?

because the golden days

and golden hair

has left me for fresher air.

how will you love me

when I am not beautiful

will you still see the treasure in me?

or will you be like a morning

that promises every day to leave?

will I see you in the morning?

will I see you anymore?

when you find love you say that

It’s about time

when your love moves away

It’s about time

and as your love explains

It’s about time

the subject of your pain

It’s about time
