Lyrics

Time, in other words, is when I look in your eyes
Time, in other words, is when I walk in the sky
Time, in other words, is we all have to say good - bye
Time, in other words, is only in this moment . . .
Are we alive

The Queen of Infinity was calling you up
Just as you walked through her door
She laughs in your face and with a little grin
Says “what the hell is it you’re here for”
You say you’ve come because you’ve read all her books yeah
And you wanted to talk about them
She gets up and says “there’s nothing to discuss
Now will you please get off my floor”

Time in other words . . .

Standing on a corner trying to
Make every wrong direction seem aligned
Twisting yourself all up in knots
Hoping for some peace to find
But you’re so confused & how unattainable it feels
And anyway you always loved a good cry
Drying your eyes and spinning your wheels
As the days drag on and the years fly by

Time in other words . . .

Shakespearean Kings were all losing their mind
Trying so hard to hang on
But the arrows and slings of an inscrutable time
Can’t puncture the light of the dawn
And you’re sitting out on your deck now, sipping your wine,
Weeping as all the birds sing their song
You’ve finally settled in for a taste so sublime
as the concert begins and the illusion is gone

Time in other words . . .
(4th time change to: We all have to say Bye-Bye instead of “good-bye”
