                                  Time’s Too Short

It seems so strange to me-what must be wrong with me and you
What we can’t have always seems to be-what we want mostly to get to

Ain’t it the truth when you think about-things that were just out of reach
Just like a fruit out of season-that’s when you most wanna eat a peach

And so it goes with love-and why they play hard to get
Though you know it’s a game-just as soon we forget

Time’s too short – you better think leaner
In you head the grass always greener
Find someone that’s true and give them you heart

Still we go on and on-making the same mistake
Even when we find love that’s true-we see the real as fake

And so the years go by with-looking back at all the time we waste
Wondering where we are goin’-elusive happiness we chase

Why can’t we see it for what it is-greediness wanting to have it all
Looking always to find that more perfect one-end up losing it left with no love at all

Time’s too short – you better think leaner
In you head the grass always greener
Find someone that’s true and give them you heart

( instrumental )

Why can’t we see it for what it is-greediness wanting to have it all
Looking always to find that more perfect one-end up losing it left with no love at all

Time’s too short – you better think leaner
In you head the grass always greener
Find someone that’s true and give them you heart

Time’s too short – you better think leaner
In you head the grass always greener
Find someone that’s true and give them you heart
