A little out of key

You can take all the time you like
We’re going to be here a while anyway
Oh, you can take all the time you need
It’s not like we have anything better to do today

Oh the roses and ribbons are all faded and tattered
And the songs we sang are in the wind
I keep getting an empty feeling in the back of my throat
Re-reading old letters I forgot to send

It’s not the crow’s feet or the gray of your hair
That makes me gaze so long in this hour
It’s not the lapses of memory or slow step
That makes me smile when you hand me a flower

Time has a way of healing the damage done
Time has a way of being the damage we heal from
Time left its mark on our lives in so many ways
Time took the whole enchilada and left us with crumbs

The dreams you dreamt were not meant to be
Until time released you from the prison of illusion
Now we have all the time to do forever and ever
With what little time time has left us in revision

So take all the time but make it short and sweet
We’ve been running on empty so long its reality
Take all the time you need real quick in this forever
And don’t stop humming when I sing a little out of key

A-ho!
