Dar Williams - Time, Be My Friend lyrics

[Verse 1] Time, be my friend, be my friend Though I have not been so kind to you Always asked where you were going Though you had no way of knowing Oh no time, I have not been kind to you [Verse 2] Time, meet me here, I'll meet you here And we'll go walking for a little while And I know what I will say I know there's only now and yesterday Oh time, I'll meet you here [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause when I thought that I was alone You snapped your fingers and a tree came into bloom And the sun came by to fill my room, oh time [Chorus] You will never tell me somеthing that has not happened yet And you will nеver make a promise, but I can get just what I get And you will never say you love me You will never say you love me But I can love just what I get [Verse 3] Time, I'll make it up to you this time And we'll go walking down that wide country road And I will be your brave companion Your adventurous D'Artagnan I will be your best receiver Your goldenest retriever I'll remember what you taught me And those treasures that you brought me Most of all, a lifetime of friends It came together when I asked you to be one of them Oh time, be my friend [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause when I thought that I was alone You snapped your fingers and a tree came into bloom And the sun came by to fill my room, oh time [Chorus] You will never tell me something that has not happened yet You will never make a promise, but I can get just what I get You will never say you love me You will never say you love me You will never say you love me But let's see what's round the bend
