They say that life can decide in the blink of eye if our silly little dreams will ever come true But the dreams in my mind all go by so slow What the hell else can I do I wanna slow it all down and watch it roll by See where the sweet melody falls I wanna roll off the tempo, lay back and get high Cause it's only time and time after all I've grown tired of cold places and the same old cold faces and I'm tired of the smoke they all blow in my eyes I'm sick of the banging, can't take no more clanging I'm tired of yelling over top that back line They say time takes care of itself It gets by without no help at all Like a jar of sand that sits on the shelf It's only time and time after all
