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.
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 favours 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 me.
Drink in your summer, gather your corn.
The dreams of the night time 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…
