Lyrics
Time is a fickle friend
Time is unpredictable and unreliable.
Well acquainted with the end
Time is familiar with the concept of endings.
Time stands still like the ocean
Time can feel motionless, akin to the stillness of the ocean.
Like stormy seas that calm pretend
Despite appearing calm, time can harbor underlying turbulence.
The world still turns and time treks on
Even as the world continues, time persists.
The hands might pause but not for long
The progression of time may temporarily halt, but it resumes quickly.
I wish that I could turn back the clock
Expresses a desire to go back in time.
I wish that time would just stop
Expresses a longing for time to cease entirely.
I wish that we had more seconds to spare
Wishing for more time to be available.
And that time would leave us right there
Desire for time to freeze in a particular moment.
To breathe in the open air
Yearning for the freedom to enjoy the present.
Rob time and simply stare
Suggests stealing time to gaze without interruption.
You're right there smiling in front of me
Observing someone close and happy in the current moment.
The view I never want to share
A special view that one wishes to keep exclusive.
The world still turns and time treks on
Reiteration that time persists despite personal desires.
The hands might pause but not for long
Reiterates the temporary pause in the progression of time.
I wish that I could turn back the clock
Repeating the desire to rewind time.
I wish that time would just stop
Repeating the wish for time to stop completely.
I wish that we had more seconds to spare
Repeating the desire for more time.
And that time would leave us right there
Reiterates the wish for time to freeze in a specific moment.
Time is a broken heart
Time is likened to a heart that can be broken.
Pieced together in the dark
The broken heart is mended in darkness, suggesting hidden struggles.
Time brings us close together
Time has the power to bring people together.
Only to fall apart
Despite coming close, time can lead to separation.
I wish that I could turn back the clock
Repeating the desire to go back in time.
I wish that time would just stop
Repeating the wish for time to stop entirely.
I wish that we had more seconds to spare
Repeating the desire for more time.
And that time would leave us right there
Reiterates the wish for time to freeze in a specific moment.
I wish that I could turn back the clock
Repeating the desire to rewind time.
I wish that time would just stop
Repeating the wish for time to stop completely.
I wish that we had more seconds to spare
Repeating the desire for more time.
And that time would leave us right there
Reiterates the wish for time to freeze in a specific moment.
Time is a fickle friend
Restates the idea that time is capricious and unpredictable.
