[Verse 1] The clock's ticking, and then I wait Each second will reverberate Inside my head, inside the room Then through the hall into the gloom And I don't know Where the time goes It just flies from me, I suppose It doesn't want to spend its life Humoring me in all my strife [Pre-Chorus] All it wants is just to be free Liberty from the likes of me I hear it moving past my door Like I can't hold it anymore [Chorus] Fly away, time Fly away, time I can't keep you here with mine Fly away, time [Verse 2] I won't waste time, won't wait around For the time to fall to the ground Prone at my feet as if in thrall I know the truth here, after all So time will spend its life out there In the kisses of love so fair I'd do the same if I were time I'd catch that scene instead of mine [Pre-Chorus] All it wants is just to be free Liberty from the likes of me If I could loosen up my hand I might begin to understand [Chorus] Fly away, time Fly away, time I can't keep you here with mine Fly away, time [Bridge] So fly away my blessings yours There's no kisses in my detours But hold my hand before you go For a second we both might go [Final Chorus] Fly away, time Fly away, time I can't keep you here with mine Fly away, time Fly away, time Fly away, time For a second, hold my hand Fly away, time
