I wish that for just one time / you could stand inside my shoes / and just for that one moment / I could be you. / Yes, I wish that for just one time / You could stand inside my shoes / You'd know what a drag it is / to see you.
It's mighty funny. The end of time has just begun.
I'm sittin' on my watch so I can be on time.
The purpose of art is to stop time.
Let me feel your love one more time before I abandon it.
Oh, time is short and the days are sweet and passion rules the arrow that flies.
I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes. You'd know what a drag it is to see you.
Take me disappearing, through the smoke rings of my mind, down the foggy ruins of time...
Old New York City is a friendly old town From Washington Heights to Harlem on down There's a-mighty many people all millin' all around They'll kick you when you're up and knock you when you're down It's hard times in the city Livin' down in New York town
The line it is drawn The curse it is cast The slow one now Will later be fast As the present now Will later be past The new order is Rapidly fadin'. And the first one now Will later be last For the times they are a-changin'.
The times they are a-changing.
Every step of the way we walk the line Your days are numbered, so are mine Time is pilin' up, we struggle and we scrape We're all boxed in, nowhere to escape
You can't be wise and in love at the same time.
People have a hard time accepting anything that overwhelms them.
