歌詞
[instrumental intro]
[verse]
Time waits for no one, yet we waste it all away
At a minute to midnight, we dread the next day
The clock ticks on, marking our every moment lost
A stitch in time saves nine, but there is still a cost
[verse]
Time flies when you're having fun, but crawls when you're feeling blue
We're racing against the clock, what are we supposed to do?
Some make hay while the sun shines, others just sleep in instead
Time is money, yet often how we spend it is misled
[chorus]
People may not remember you, but remember how you made them feel
Inspire with your words each day. The way you affect them is really real.
We never know which words that those around us need to hear
But simple words that encourage them can last them year after year.
[verse]
The early bird will catch the worm, the second mouse gets the cheese
If procrastination is our game, then we'll pay with steep fees
We're burning the midnight oil, but still we fall behind
Time is of the essence, yet no vision makes us blind
[verse]
Is it the amount of breaths we take, or moments that take our breath away
We try to turn back time, but age shows up anyway
Time may heal all wounds, but we still remember pain
Time is the master thief, stealing moments we'll never regain
[chorus]
People may not remember you, but remember how you made them feel
Inspire with your words each day. The way you affect them is really real.
We never know which words that those around us need to hear
But simple words that encourage them can last them year after year.
[verse]
We're caught up in the cycle, of weeks, even hours or days
Trying to make sense of our ever hopeless, fleeting ways
But time just slips away, like falling sand in an hourglass
And then we're left with nothing. Our memories are a masterclass
[verse]
Time is just a journey that we're all just passing through
Trying to make our lasting mark, before our ending time is due
We're all chasing the clock, but it's also chasing us too
In this endless race for time, what are we gonna do?
[chorus]
People may not remember you, but remember how you made them feel
Inspire with your words each day. The way you affect them is really real.
We never know which words that those around us need to hear
But simple words that encourage them can last them year after year.
