Hey ! where's the fire?
is there any need to rush so?
look at me trying to catch up with you
but only managing to catch a glimpse of the vanishing you
Have heard paens sung in praise of you
your punctuality and regularity
how you never miss a date
with all the three sixty five days
Is it foolish of me then
in this year of my life
to hope that you slow down
sort of slacken the pace
give me time to do everything
Time is running away and out
with all my dreams spinning in a web of wasted youth
I want you to slow down,catch your breath
give me time to do at least half of what I have wanted to do
Hey ! I am talking to you, Time.
