It’s a square in the city that never sleeps,
It’s the distance here between you and me,
It’s the reason my daddy and I see differently
It’s the dash chisled in an old stone
It Flys, before ya know it it’s gone,
You can try to hold it back, but you won’t
Chorus
It’s time and it’s time that I take it,
Cause It’s mine and I ain’t gonna waste it,
It’ll change, but it won’t slow down and it don’t Lie
All this time I thought I was Chasing it ya see,
But now I’m seeing how it’s catching up with me,
And right now its got me thinking about spending it right,
Yeah and it’s about time
It’s money, of the essence and it slips away,
It’s that second hand ticking every loving day
You try to save it but always running behind
It’s the thing that you said that you needed most,
It’s the memories and laughs that it somehow stole
From my grandpas mind as grew old and lost track
You can’t get it back
Chorus
It’s time and it’s time that I take it,
Cause It’s mine and I ain’t gonna waste it,
It’ll change, but it won’t slow down and it don’t Lie
All this time I thought I was Chasing it ya see,
But now I’m seeing how it’s catching up with me,
And right now its got me thinking about spending it right,
It’s about time
