Time Waits For No One
Written by: Doug Scharley
Lyrics © D. R. Scharley Consulting Inc.
Time has no master
But maybe a soul
It permits distortions
Like little black holes
But you gotta make
The most that you can
Of the time that you have
Those are precious grains of sand
You can’t get them back
Once they’ve slipped away
They’re in the rear view mirror
And that’s where they’re gonna stay
(Chorus)
Time waits for no one you can’t slow it down
Relentless precision it never breaks down
Time isn’t close to the end of the race
It’s just getting started as it hurtles through space
We get to tag along for a spec of this trip
So savor the ride ‘cause it goes by too quick
The only thing to fear
Is fear itself
Don’t worry ‘bout mistakes
They’ll take care of themselves
100 years from now
Who’ll really care what you did
And a 1000 from now
It’s as if you never lived
Every second counts
So don’t waste a single one
Live with no regrets
And every day you’ve won
(Chorus)
Time waits for no one you can’t slow it down
Relentless precision it never breaks down
Time isn’t close to the end of the race
It’s just getting started as it hurtles through space
We get to tag along for a spec of this trip
So savor the ride ‘cause it goes by too quick
Time has no master
But maybe a soul
It permits distortions
Like little black holes
But you gotta make
The most that you can
Of the time that you have
Those are precious grains of sand
You can’t get them back
Once they’ve slipped away
They’re in the rear view mirror
And that’s where they’re gonna stay
(Chorus)
Time waits for no one you can’t slow it down
Relentless precision it never breaks down
Time isn’t close to the end of the race
It’s just getting started as it hurtles through space
We get to tag along for a spec of this trip
So savor the ride ‘cause it goes by too quick
The only thing to fear
Is fear itself
Don’t worry ‘bout mistakes
They’ll take care of themselves
100 years from now
Who’ll really care what you did
And a 1000 from now
It’s as if you never lived
Every second counts
So don’t waste a single one
Live with no regrets
And every day you’ve won
(Chorus)
Time waits for no one you can’t slow it down
Relentless precision it never breaks down
Time isn’t close to the end of the race
It’s just getting started as it hurtles through space
We get to tag along for a spec of this trip
So savor the ride ‘cause it goes by too quick
