Time is the Final Currency (5:18)
|
Words and Music: David Crosby
|
|
Time is the final currency
|
Not money
|
Not power
|
The time will come
|
When you will give
|
Anything for one more hour
|
|
Today I learned
|
There are no secrets
|
Only time for them to unfold
|
|
And the patience to watch
|
The scroll of truth
|
Slowly be unrolled
|
|
There is a time to this
|
There is a flow
|
There is a tension here
|
Like a hard bent bow
|
Ready to send up
|
Send up another one
|
Another spark in the night
|
And suddenly you realize
|
That this time it is all right
|
|
I watched the greatest miracle
|
Take three quarters of a year
|
To bring forth life
|
And tiny breath
|
For all the world to hear
|
|
There is a time to this
|
There is a flow
|
There is a tension here
|
Like a hard bent bow
|
Ready to send up
|
Send up another one
|
Another spark in the night
|
And suddenly you realize
|
That this time it is all right
