Beth Crowley - Time

I pleaded with the heavens
I bargained with the gods
That even though the chance is slim
You might defy the odds so you can be
Here with me
Just a little bit longer

The good days turn to bad days
The bad days just get worse until
I wish I had those bad days back
It all becomes a blur 'cause you can't be
Here with me
Just a little bit longer

Time is a gift and
Time is a thief
Time is currency we spend
I'm glad that you spent yours with me

It's a mystеry
That I will never understand
It makеs me want the universe
To have a bigger plan

'Cause when it comes to getting
Time with those we love
No amount of time's enough
In days I least expect it
It comes out of the blue
When something insignificant
Will remind me of you
And how my world has become
Just a little bit smaller

I hope that you could feel it
When you were still around
The impact that you had on me
So quietly profound
And now my world has become
Just a little bit smaller

Time is a gift and
Time is a thief
Time is currency we spend
I'm glad that you spent yours with me

It's a mystery
That I will never understand
It makes me want the universe
To have a bigger plan

'Cause when it comes to getting
Time with those we love
No amount of time's enough
Does anyone else feel a sense of
Panic settle in
Whenever they're faced with the fact
That nothing is permanent?

A concept that I actively
Try not to think about
Because how can I be sure
I made each moment with you count?

Time is a gift and
Time is a thief
Time is currency we spend
I'm glad that you spent yours with me

It's a mystery
That I will never understand
It makes me want the universe
To have a bigger plan

'Cause when it comes to getting
Time with those we love
No amount of time's enough
