Time is not on our Side

The other day I passed the site
of a horrid accident
the car was crushed, the man was dead
a drunk adolescent

The other day I saw the news
another bomb went off
the building blown, the people died
when will it be enough

because Time
is not on our side
we've got to make the best
of what we have
before we all die

because Time
does not rewind
we've got to live our life
the best we can
because we're sure to find

that Time
is not on our side

The other night I bid my friend
a casual farewell
Got in his car and drove away
was drunk, but hey oh well

He drove along, oblivious
when the snow began to fall
slid off the road, over a cliff
they could not find him at all

because Time
is not on our side
we've got to make the best
of what we have
before we all die

because Time
does not rewind
we've got to live our life
the best we can
because we're sure to find

that Time
is not on our side
