Yes, star crossed in pleasure the stream flows on by
Yes, as we're sated in leisure, we watch
it fly
And
time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
And time waits for no one, and it
won't wait for me
Time
can tear down a building or destroy a woman's face
Hours are like diamonds, don't let
them waste
Time
waits for no one, no favours has he
Time waits for no one, and he won't
wait for me
Men,
they build towers to their passing yes, to their fame everlasting
Here he comes chopping and reaping,
hear him laugh at their cheating
And
time waits for no man, and it won't wait for me
Yes, time waits for no one, and it
won't wait for me
Drink
in your summer, gather your corn
The dreams of the night time will
vanish by dawn
And
time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
And time waits for no one, and it
won't wait for me
No
no no, not for me....
