Lyrics
Looking for salvation by living on the edge
Talking to strangers and never going to bed
Every moment a memory, every minute a dream
Overtired and reckless to the very extreme
It reminds me of the garden of the lady down the road
She plants her seeds by the window so she can watch them grow
They go on with their plant life and they do it all day long
She says the rose is my heart and the wind is it's song
When she feels that it's slipping again
And the air is frustrating the stem
The rain will come down if she waits patiently
Oh time
Thought the goal was to be better than we were yesterday
You know the earth was the garden, we should keep it that way
When you're young and your life seems a long time to live
And then as you get older you find that it is
Events piled up in a line
Color at the top of the climb
Marking a leaf where you want it to be
Oh time
