[Verse 1] Waiting for the night to come Watching down that fallen sun Losing where the moment came from Blink and the magic’s done What happened to the easy laugh The open road and broken map Fun just fades like a photograph Left too long in the back [Chorus] Father Time Won’t you lend me an hour Just a little more sand in the glass To have the fun of a lifetime Before it all moves past Let me hold the ones who know me Keep ’em right here in my sight Brighten up the day like sunshine ’Til it rolls into the night [Verse 2] One more second toward tomorrow One more day gone in the dust Trading all my loose change hours For paychecks and rust But when her hand finds mine I swear Colors bleed outside the lines Front porch jokes and kitchen prayers Turn the dark into a shine [Chorus] [Bridge] Spin that clock hand slow Slow Slower [crescendo] Let the red wine stain the time Let the kids keep laughing louder Let my old truck take one more drive If the good times burn so fast Turn the flame up while they last I’ll ride this runaway sunset ’Til the stars all call me back [Chorus]
