Album: The Lilac Time
I can hear the world go round
A muffled drum, a rolling sound
But I can't hear the words they say
It doesn't matter anyway
And I can see the time go by
Standing still it's we who fly
So wrap me up in skies of blue
There never has been much
There's never been much to do
CHORUS:
You've got to give more than you take
You've got to love (is all you need)
And if you find a love that's true
Good for you (is all you need)
'Cause you need a love to get by
You've got to give more than you take
You've got to love (is all you need)
'Tis such a shame they kill and die
And never think to question why
And I don't know what to believe
A time to come, a time to leave
'Cause I can see the time go by
Standing still it's we who fly
So wrap me up in skies of blue
There never has been much
There's never been much to do
You might say that I'm mistaken, baby
Baby, you can take a look
I've had lots of pictures taken
I put them in a picture book
Look at all the smiling faces
I know you will persist that they're
They're the smiles that time erases
But your time never did exist
