Time to Know Songtext
von DeYarmond Edison

And the moon went still in your eyes
And they′re like a lake just under the night
And the starships rolled, and the ripples flowed
And we slowly swayed in the rowboat
Tried to guide it, our little private resistance
To fold

And the struggle came, and it took no aim
And it pried and tore, and it marched with a cane
Way off the map in some laundry mat
We both could feel it, and it broke our back
Now the seasons have trouble passing
Through the creases in my heart

And it's time to know that it′s time to go
It's time to know that it's time to go


Now the magazines in the grocery isle
Flash bedroom paint and kitchen tile
And the things it left when you had to let it go
I could live for better, at least I thought so
So up your cheekbones, the veracity
That we weren′t ready to show

And it was time to know that it was time to go
And it was time to know that it was time to go

Every sailboat thrown
Every failed poem
Every morning dream
Every evening steam
Every sidewalk sale
Every finishing nail
Every dress that′s worn
Every baby born
