Time Can

Time can Time can be my friend, or time can run away Hold me for a slow minute, promise me you’ll stay Words can help me explain, words can leave me blank I’ve so many of them to find the right way to thank To thank you for the dreams, those dreams I long to see In daylight, against an autumn sky under our maple tree Time can be my friend, this time the clocks won’t mean a thing And words can be breathed by lovers hear the song they sing Dreams were the plans we cried about after myriad false starts Time after time, words failed but the fire kept burning in our hearts Oh baby, feel the cure to your ills, God knows it’s more than pills Ain’t nothing fancy, you don’t need fancy just true love, no frills Oh baby, zip your coat and grab your keys, drive past the houses and the trees To our home in the city where your man is waiting here patiently to please Honey don’t you know time can be our friend; we can laugh as it ticks away Words won’t be hard to find, how many will we need to be happy every day? Dreams will be between us, tomorrows of laughter and love Blessed to finally be sharing the grace of our God above Tim Windisch 10 08 2024
