"Time to Live" ("Time")

Lyrics by Judy Niemack

Music by Richie Powell

Like the waves hiss on the sands,

Time slips right through our hands.

Remembering how it was,

We miss how it is.

While tomorrow fills our minds,

Life’s mystery unwinds,

We look to the future with despair,

Unaware.

But while time is passing by, are we wasting

Those brief precious moments,

When we should be tasting the joy life can bring?

We hide, living life behind a frown,

Missing all the love that’s here right now.

Like the tide, time doesn’t wait,

Go on, don’t hesitate,

To take something only you can give;

Time to Live.
