Time

Performed by Accidental Bedfellows



We were stones, we were stones
And we found a hidden love
As we were floating

I was the sighing of the city
As the last bus crossed the bridge
You were more the calling of the river
Through the railing

Time, oh, time
You see it now and then
Time is all the people
Who you'll never hold again

I didn't know that I was drowning
I could just see a rippled glow
Digging at the surface
For some way to get below

There's a moment where you feel
You've scattered all the pieces of the moon
But there's really no such stone
Could ever break her

Time, oh, time
You see it now and then
Time is just the people
Who you'll never hold again

There is what we know as breathing
And what we know as breath
And the two don't know each other
Until one of them has left

And on the backseat drive under flying lights
My clothes still soaking wet
I could hear my body singing:
Don't you ever now forget

Time, oh, time
You see it now and then
Time is all the people
Who you'll never hold again

Time, oh, time
You see it now and then
Time is all the people
Who you'll never hold again
