about

This song was originally titled "I Really Don't Have the Time" and written in 1983. It was part of an entire album I pitched to Atlantic Records, who were only interested in one song, which is track 11 on this album...It has been updated twice, and became "Time" in 2014. I think it fits much better in this concept

lyrics

TIME
By Mychael John Thomas

You say you wanna be my friend...I think that’s nice
‘Cause my friendship runs to the soul…
if you know how to treat my love
I will give everything...And nothing ask
Except that you caress each moment we can find to share our love
But if your heart is filled with anger
And you're only gonna cause me pain well

CHORUS
I really don’t have the time…I really don’t have the time (repeat)

Before we can become friends know what you want
And every expectation you have for the future of our love
If you will give everything and nothing ask
Except that we can spend each hour now and ever sharing love
But if you’re holding off decision
And you only want me waiting till then

CHORUS

BRIDGE
One lifetime goes too fast...and shorter if you never trust
Like sand in the hourglass…time is rushing past us (SOLO)

I can tell that we’ll be friends a long while
‘Cause everything is in your eyes
You can’t disguise your eager love
So now we see it all beginning
If someone else tries to steal my moments

CHORUS(2)
I’m giving you all my time…I’m giving you all my time (repeat)
