The clock ticks. A baby cries.
Sand slips through the hour glass. An old man dies.
The sun’ll rise, shadows’ll fall.
There’s no rehearsal and no curtain call.

The world spins on and on …….

Time waits for no one,
Life waits for no one.
The countdown began, the day I was born
How can I know when I’ll see my last dawn?
Time. Time waits for no one.

The clock ticks, toward my fate.
They say good things come, to those who wait.
Can’t hold back the river. Can’t stop the rain.
Can’t take a break, or start over again.

The world spins on and on

Time waits for no one,
Life waits for no one.
The countdown began, the day I was born
How can I know when I’ll see my last dawn?
Time. Time waits for no one.

The clock ticks. The time has come.
(Now) I gotta do, what must be done.
The show goes on. Chorus then verse.
There’s only forward ‘n there’s no reverse.

The world spins on and on

Time waits for no one,
Life waits for no one.
The countdown began, the day I was born
How can I know when I’ll see my last dawn?
Time. Time waits for no one.
