From the recording LAST TOMORROW
Lyrics
TAKE TIME<br />
<br />
Darkness follows you all around;<br />
Your shadow’s lost and can’t be found;<br />
Your conscience fled without a sound.<br />
Darkness follows you all around.<br />
<br />
You know the face in the mirror<br />
Shows not a hint or trace of fear –<br />
Too rushed to ever shed a tear.<br />
You know the face in the mirror.<br />
<br />
Your schedule’s a daytime nightmare;<br />
Too busy to be anywhere;<br />
Your every move is blocked in squares.<br />
Your schedule’s a daytime nightmare.<br />
<br />
You’ve got to take time to make time,<br />
My friend;<br />
Choose not to lose in the end;<br />
Never break, but always bend.<br />
You’ve got to take time to make time,<br />
My friend.<br />
<br />
Friends and family stand and wait;<br />
Watch you wheel, deal, and delegate;<br />
Dancing on the tightrope of fate.<br />
Friends and family stand and wait.<br />
<br />
You could take your last breath today;<br />
You could shake hands with death and say,<br />
“Without an appointment, no way!”<br />
You could take your last breath today.<br />
<br />
No pockets in your graveyard suit;<br />
You’ll be leaving all of your loot;<br />
Organizers, credit cards too.<br />
No pockets in your graveyard suit.<br />
<br />
You’ve got to take time to make time,<br />
My friend;<br />
Choose not to lose in the end;<br />
Never break, but always bend.<br />
You’ve got to take time to make time,<br />
My friend.<br />
<br />
You’ve got to take time to make time,<br />
My friend;<br />
Choose not to lose in the end;<br />
Never break, but always bend.<br />
You’ve got to take time to make time,<br />
My friend.<br />
