Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Time is able to discern when long-term love has had its turn
And only then we'll drop the curtain, let the credits start to roll
Her aura's so imposin', had me in your bed and clothin'
Lukewarm caffeine in the mornin'
Can your brother take me home?
When we were pullin' strings to keep her around
Those were the days I didn't let it down
Though love will run deep like hurt runs out
[Verse 2]
Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard
Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard and for the longest
Held us in her arms, she loved us hard
Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard and for the longest
[Verse 3]
Raised us, shaped us
Molded and made us into who we are today
And who we plan to stay
[Verse 4]
(Time) Met us in December, made your name one to remember
Now though only here to cool the embers
She will never cease to console us
So as you look back to where we began
Loosenin' your grip a little on her hand
Keep it in mind we owe her more
Than we could ever make apparent (Time)
Barely on our hands, still loved us hard (Hard)
Time barely on our hands, still loved us hard
Her care was constant
Held us in her arms, she loved us hard (Hard)
Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard and for the longest
And was nobody's but ours
[Verse 5]
May part of me live on in you
Let your heart bleed and be an open wound
We know time will tend to
And as part of you lives on in me
I'm holdin' broken to the same degree
Knowing time will mend me
[Verse 6]
Raised us, shaped us
Moulded and made us into who we are today
And who we plan to stay
Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard
Know as she turns to depart
She loved us hard and for the longest
Held us in her arms, she loved us hard
So know as she turns to depart
She loved us hard and for the longest
And was nobody's but ours
[Verse 7]
(Ba, da, da, da)
(Ba, da, da, da)
(Ba, da, da, da, da)
(Ba, da)
(Ba, da, da, da, da)
