The Time

And we said
That when time came to us
And asked what we wanted
More or less
To go back or go forward
To pause
And walk round the life freezer
That we would laugh
Laugh at times face
And keep on our roads
Because we said
Time will not dictate us
Or where we go
What we do
Why we are here
Is not to count seconds
Or wish for second chances
No
We will laugh at time
Because it can only steal
What we leave behind
It can only fly
If we stay on the ground
It cannot measure our souls
Or the worth of our smiles
It cannot capture our hearts
Or our intelligence
No
We said
That when time came to us
We would keep our eyes to each other
And never lose heart

That's what we said
But the thing is,
We don't always do what we say
Do we?
No
