Lyrics

Think about the time

Reflect on the passage of time

These are the best of days

These are the best days

You hold the world in the palm of your hand

You have significant influence and control

You've got one, two, three, four

Numerical reference to fingers, emphasizing having enough

Who needs more?

Content with what you have, no need for more

An army at your command

You have a powerful support system


Suddenly, you don't belong (suddenly, you don't belong)

Feeling out of place suddenly

And if the others treat you wrong (and if the others treat you wrong)

Experiencing mistreatment from others

Draw closer, try to make the most of

Seek closeness and maximize the situation

You don't have the time to waste time

Urge to use time wisely


Once upon a time, you had the best of friends

Recall a time with close friends

You were alive in each other's minds

Mutual vitality in each other's thoughts

Read a likeness in your words

Find common ground in expressions

Are you ever going to send that letter you find?

Questioning the delay in sending a letter


You never say, "I told you so" (you never say, "I told you so")

Avoid saying "I told you so"

Never tell me how you know (never tell me how you know)

Keep knowledge to oneself

Come closer, try to make the most of

Seek closeness despite differences

You don't have the time to waste time

Emphasize the value of time


Destroy your correspondence

Dispose of written communication

You read it back, it's nonsense

Reflection on nonsensical content in letters

Old letters, feed them to the shredder

Destroy old letters to move forward

You can let the past be silent

Let go of the past and its communication

Speculate, accumulate

Speculate and gather experiences

Embrace the love, erase the hate

Embrace love, eliminate hate


Move closer, try to make the most of

Approach, maximize opportunities

Give a little time to make time

Allocate time to create time

Give a little time to make time

Repeat emphasis on investing time

Give a little time

Allocate a portion of time

Give a little time to make time

Reiterate the importance of time allocation
