Oh

Oh

I've been a long way from home a long time

Something about this skin never felt right

When my time has come you can kiss my mother on the forehead

You can tell her that it's alright

Tell my papa that he's the best da' I ever had

Give a firm gripped handshake to my brother - my partner in crime

Ruffle the ears of the cats and dogs; and I'm pretty sure they're coming home with me

Oh

Oh

Tell the cashier that he can keep the change - I won't need that for where I'm going

Forget about the mortgage I never paid - there are plenty of rooms where I'm going

Oh

Oh

Why so longed faced? I'm going home and not away

There'll be no more tears and no more pain

I will keep your seat warm

Take His hand and follow me

I'll see you in no time

Oh

Oh

Run

Run as fast as you can

Oh, fly

Fly as far as you can

Oh, time

There will never be enough time

I know I've always been your friend

Oh, I know I've always been your friend

So run

Run as fast as you can

Oh, fly

Fly as far as you can

Oh, time

Our nemesis

We're up against the clock

Isn't it strange?

Oh

It's the most predictable thing

Oh, time

And still we lose track of it

Oh, it flies

Oh, it runs away

Oh, time

And I know you'll always be my friend

So let's go

Oh, we'll fly

We'll fly so far through the night

And I know you'll always be my friend

Oh, I know we'll always have the time to sit back and reflect

So take my hand and we'll fly

Through the night

Through the sky

Oh, we'll fly through the night

And I'll always be your friend I know

Time, it means nothing without the tide

Without the curveballs of this life

So beautiful

So beautiful

So beautiful it hurts

Oh, it burns
