Your Time Is Near Lyrics

Well it took a long time but, you've finally worn out your smile That's when I knew it I'd run out of borrowed time You always used to say that, you could learn a lot through wasting time And that if you look hard you'll see yourself in your lover's eyes
Your time is near, it won't be long You've got to go when you're called upon No light of day, no sight of dawn Don't turn around, just walk right on
You came riding into town in a black and white five and ten Said, "I'll be your captain and take you back home again" It's your third time around but, you know I'll get a second wind But if we ever get there they'll be no one there to let us in
Your time is near, it won't be long You've got to go when you're called upon You caught me dancing in the street last night You walked right past me into the light
Packed up my souvenirs, tied my shoes and sold my car Yes, I should have known it, I'd never get very far Ever since we've met you've been a hungry and a restless child You're just like your father, you know he's got a poison mind
Your time is near, it won't be long You've got to go when you're called upon You said you and me, we'd never will pretend But my broken soul is never gonna mend
