(Warren Zevon)
|
Time marches on
|
Time stands still
|
Time on my hands
|
Time to kill
|
Blood on my hands
|
And my hands in the till
|
Down at the 7-11
|
Gentle rain
|
Falls on me
|
All life folds back
|
Into the sea
|
We contemplate eternity
|
Beneath the vast indifference of heaven
|
|
The past seems realer than the present to me now
|
I've got memories to last me
|
When the sky is gray
|
The way it is today
|
I remember the times when I was happy
|
|
Same old sun
|
Same old moon
|
It's the same old story
|
Same old tune
|
They all say
|
Someday soon
|
My sins will all be forgiven
|
Gentle rain
|
Falls on me
|
All life folds back
|
Into the sea
|
We contemplate eternity
|
Beneath the vast indifference of heaven
|
|
They say "Everything's all right"
|
They say "Better days are near"
|
They tell us "These are the good times"
|
But they don't live around here
|
Billy and Christie don't--
|
Bruce and Patti don't--
|
They don't live around here
|
|
I had a girl
|
Now she's gone
|
She left town
|
Town burned down
|
Nothing left
|
But the sound
|
Of the front door closing forever
|
|
Gentle rain
|
Falls on me
|
All life folds back
|
Into the sea
|
We contemplate eternity
|
Beneath the vast indifference of heaven
|
