Time

Today I'm closing up the house
 cause it don't feel like home
 the harder twilight pulls at me
 the less I wanna go
 They say that all the streets of heaven
 are paved with gold
 that's just to hurry up us folks
 that get too old
 Time gets me wound up
 like a clock inside my head
 Time gets me spinning my own wheels
 and when I think that there ain't one more inch
 this worn out heart can give
 Time's gonna teach me how it feels
 Watch your hands they don't get caught
 I'm 'bout to close this door
 you bright young kids are all I got
 and now I know what for
 you'll see that love's the only thing
 we've go to show
 time will just run out but love I know
 Time gets you wound up
 like a clock inside your head
 Time gets you spinning your own wheels
 and while you're losing what you found
 you're finding out that's what you need
 Time's gonna teach you how it feels
 I know your father's watching
 he's saving me a place right by his side
 and that you don't like to hear that kind of talk
 but it ain't up to me to hide
 don't make it hard for me to go
 don't make it hard for me
 This house has seen some fifty years
 atop the same old soil
 but houses are just houses child
 its people are what's loyal
 you'll see that love's the only thing
 we've got to show
 Time will just run out but love I know
 Time gets you wound up
 like a clock inside your head
 Time gets you spinning your own wheels
 and when you think that there ain't one more inch
 this worn out heart can give
 Time's gonna teach you how it feels
