You stick your finger down the throat of the thing That showed you how to move taught you how to sing You’re not too old but you ain’t that young Keep your one eye on the moon the other on the sun
Your fingers twitching but your hands are tied Something so good has been pushed to the side Your body’s reeling for what it used to be A soul that’s light and a heart that’s free
Open your eyes it’s getting away Make up your mind sink into today Time is a traitor Time is a saint Time is a train and it just won’t wait
I’ve got a feeling that I just can’t shake All this revealing intuition won’t break I’ll burn my expectations at the stake And burst apart before it’s too late
Open your eyes it’s getting away Make up your mind sink into today Time is a traitor Time is a saint Time is a train and it just won’t wait
