lyrics

My babe and I were talking
About our hopes and dreams
I guess there's a clock ticking?
I'm not listening, no
All time is borrowed time
And I'm only keeping half an eye
On an uncertain future

Life can keep you caged in
Toiling on hook and line
Working towards a future that may never arrive
Time’s a damn thief
I'm tired of gnashing my teeth
Each day is a gamble I'm letting it ride

Time flies, yeah it's true
Got to hold onto something, I'm holding on to you
We’re burying old friends and the dreams of youth
Best get busy living while the living's still good

The years have passed so quickly
And some of the old fading dreams
Weren't as important as they seemed
Old friends are scattered far apart
But I keep them in my heart
And plunge ever forward

You say I'll catch my death?
You're wasting your breath
Which pleasure shall I give up next?
Time’s a damn thief
I'm tired of gnashing my teeth
Each day is a gamble I'm letting it ride
