Time

isn't it just like me(

to make a joke out of tragedy(

all I needed was some time(

I'm not living in the past

(I thought I'd try (to make you laugh

(that's one thing I can do(

and do it well( well I wish I could

(I was just passing (through your neighborhood

(but you don't seem too amused(

I just thought I'd stop and say(

I was thinking about you today(

and you were right(

I see you in the morning sun

(in the flight of the blue heron

(I see you in the evening sky(

and I see you in my dream(

this song was easy to write

(it just came to me last night

(it only took me fifteen years

(now isn't it just like me(

to make a joke out of tragedy

(all I needed was some( time
