Time

Time and time again I knew what I was doing and Time and time again I just made things worse It seems you see the most of what is really true when You're stepping into your hearse Only time can write a song that's really really real The most a man can do is say the way its playing feels And know he only knows as much as time to him reveals And when I want to write a song that says it all at once Like time sublimely silences the whys I know that if I try I'm going to take a fall at once And splatter there between my lies Only time can write a song that's really really real The most a man can do is say the way its playing feels And know he only knows as much as time to him reveals We are made of it and if we give submission Among our chances there's a chance we can choose And if we take it, by uncertainty's permission Then it's impossible to lose Only time can write a song that's really really real The most a man can do is say the way its playing feels And know he only knows as much as time to him reveals --- Time - Richard Hell and Richard Hell & the Voidoids
