Dear Time Songtext

Somewhat disconnected
Tied with twine
Each a small remembrance
One inside the other
On rewind, tonight I find them
Dimmed by wine
Hey time
Thank you for the lovers
The ones that went astray and
Thank you for the one that stayed
Hey time
Accepting of each other
Hold off on that buzzer
For just a little while
Look what I've collected
A little box of memories
Somewhat disconnected
Tied with twine
Each a bit of color
Winter, spring, fall and summer Set to burn, they return, a warm blue flame
Dear time
You know I'm at your service
Thank you for the extra heartbeats
I'm not so sure I earned them
Dear time
I've heard you are efficient
I cancelled my physician
Whatever you decide
How much have I forgotten?
In the little box of memories
Edges start to soften
Lose their shine
Each a little wonder
A faded watercolor
All unsigned, on standby
In my mind
Look what I've collected
A little box of memories
Somewhat disconnected
Tied with twine
Could I trade them in for
A visit with my mom and dad
Or throw the ball with my old dog
One more time
Hey time
Look at what you made me
Sentimental
And slightly crazy
Dear time
On this fair occasion
I'd like to say you've given me
More than what you've taken
