Periodically, I'm just gonna post a song or poem that is running through my head. For some inexplicable reason, this song has been ringing in my ears of late. If I can snag to MP3 or track, I'll post it in my stash, but for now, here are the lyrics...
Father Time
Music and Lyrics: Richie Sambora
Father time
I couldn’t make her want to stay
Couldn’t seem to find the words to say
Now I have to live in yesterday
Father Time
I thought that you were on my side.
I thought that I could keep our love alive
Thought that I could keep her satisfied.
But the clock keeps ticking
And I keep on thinking bout you.
I’m knocking at the door of her heart and I can’t break through
CHORUS
Father Time
Grant me just another day
Of our love
I tried to make her stay
Father Time
Don’t tell me it’s too late
All my life
You know that I would wait
Father Time
Now she’s gone
She didn’t even say goodbye
I guess she didn’t have the heart to try
She didn’t even have the guts to lie.
Father Time
Only you can turn the page
And close the curtain on this empty stage
Only you can take my pain away
Well my heart keeps breakin and my body keeps achin
For you, Lord
It’s time to hold on but there’s nothing left to hold on to.
Chorus
Father Father, can’t you see I’m depending on you?
I’m dying at the door to her heart and I can’t break through.
Chorus
Father Time..she’s your child…
Make her mine…
Father Time…
Like I said, no real reason for the song to be in my head...just one I've loved since I first heard it, like 15 years ago.
