Time
Embracing Eternal Moments: A Love Song to Defy Time
Lyrics
I know I'll never get even with time
I acknowledge that I can never catch up or equalize with time.
And what it took from us
I misunderstood what belonged to me and what time has taken away from us.
I mistook what was mine and what was time's
There was no negotiation or compromise possible.
And there was no bargaining
Contracts and agreements break under the weight of time.
All contracts break under the burden of
Time imposes a burden causing contracts to break.
The ticking and the tocking
Continuing the metaphor of time as a clock, referring to ticking and tocking sounds.
Why do they say time runs out
Raising a question about why people say time runs out.
Time isn't running it doesn't have to
Contradicting the notion that time runs, emphasizing it simply progresses without urgency.
Time just walks, rolls out of the door
Time moves casually, walking out of our lives.
Into the distance
Describing time moving away into the distance.
Disappearing over the horizon
Imagining time disappearing over the horizon like the sun setting.
But let us love
Advocating for embracing love despite the constraints of time.
To forever fend off yesterdays and tomorrows
Suggesting that love can protect against the impact of past and future events.
Let us love
Reiterating the importance of love as a defense against time.
Let your eyelids sink low as the evening tide
Encouraging a deep connection by allowing oneself to be immersed in the evening atmosphere.
Let your moon pull me in
Using celestial imagery to describe the magnetic pull of a partner.
Breathe me deep into your belly
Invoking a sense of intimacy by asking to be deeply embraced.
We're not running out of time
Contradicting the notion of running out of time, asserting that time is not a limitation.
We're not running at all we don't have to
Rejecting the idea of running against time, emphasizing the lack of necessity.
There's no running out of time
Affirming that time is not a constraint when engaged in love.
When we're laying into love
Emphasizing the significance of love over the passage of time.
Let us slip into the silk of the night
Suggesting a transition into a serene and peaceful state symbolized by silk.
Wrap ourselves in a cocoon of it's quiet
Desiring to envelop oneself in the tranquility of the night.
And for a moment let us
Advocating for a temporary escape from the challenges of the day.
Forget about the day as the day
Highlighting the mutual forgetfulness of the lovers and the day.
Has certainly forgotten about us
Embracing a moment of blissful ignorance towards the external world.
Let us rest in the knowing
Finding solace in the knowledge that the current state won't last indefinitely.
That now won't last forever
Acknowledging the impermanence of the present moment.
But now is all of what we ever have
Emphasizing that the present moment is the only time they truly possess.
And now is the all of always
Stressing that the present is eternal and encompasses all aspects of time.
And let us love now
Reiterating the call to love in the present moment.
