Time can build
And, time can turn what's built into rubble
And, time can heal what's broken
But, time can often feel hopeless
Steal the best of us
And, leave what's left of us to wonder why
And, I will try my best
To push past that hopeless "why"
Make time it's own demise
And, attempt a better life
So, I will sing of love for the rest of my life
Like bold Hallelujah's on the 4th of July
Bursting against a back lit sky
Thirsting beyond black and white
Time can teach
And, time can reach into a person's heart
And, time can miss it's own mark
But, time cannot by it's own merit impart
Itself a brand new start
Or, itself unto itself once it's gone by
And, I will try my best
To forge past what I've left behind
Make time a friend of mine
And, embrace a better life
So, I will sing of love for the rest of my life
Like bold Hallelujah's on the 4th of July
Bursting against a back lit sky
Thirsting beyond black and white
