Time Waits For No One

Yes, star-crossed in pleasure, the stream flows on by Yes, as we're sated in leisure, we watch it fly, yes And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me Time can tear down a building or destroy a woman's face Hours are like diamonds, don't let them waste Time waits for no one, no favors has he Time waits for no one, and he won't wait for me Men, they build towers to their passing Yes, to their fame everlasting Here he comes, chopping and reaping Hear him laugh at their cheating And time waits for no man, and it won't wait for me Yes, time waits for no one, and it won't wait for thee Drink in your summer, gather your corn The dreams of the nighttime will vanish by dawn And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me No, no, no, not for me, no, not for me --- Time Waits for No One - The Rolling Stones
