| Father Time, I couldn’t make her wanna stay
|
| I couldn’t seem to find the words to say
|
| Now, I have to live in yesterday
|
| Father Time, I thought that you were on my side
|
| I thought that I could keep our love alive
|
| I thought that I could keep her satisfied
|
| The clock keeps tickin'
|
| And I keep on thinkin' 'bout you
|
| I’m knockin' at the door of your heart
|
| But I can’t break through
|
| Father Time, grant me just another day
|
| Of our love I tried to make her stay
|
| Father Time, don’t tell me it’s too late
|
| All my life you know that I would wait
|
| Father Time
|
| Now she’s gone, she didn’t even say goodbye
|
| I guess she didn’t have the heart to try
|
| She didn’t even have the guts to lie
|
| Father Time, only you can turn the page
|
| And close the curtain on this empty stage
|
| Only you can take my pain away
|
| Well, my heart keeps breakin'
|
| And my body keeps achin' for you
|
| It’s time to hold on
|
| But there’s nothin' left to hold on to
|
| Father Time, grant me just another day
|
| Of our love I tried to make her stay
|
| Father Time, don’t tell me it’s too late
|
| All my life you know that I would wait
|
| Father Time
|
| Father, Father can’t you see
|
| I’m dependin' on you
|
| I’m dyin' at the door to your heart
|
| And I can’t break through
|
| Father Time, grant me just another day
|
| Of our love I tried to make her stay
|
| Father Time, don’t tell me it’s too late
|
| All my life you know that I would wait
|
| Father Time
|
| She’s your child make her mine
|
| Father Time |
