cast of the curious case of benjamin button & clare foster - time lyrics
[elowen keene]
we have time
we all have time
we cannot alter the decisions we have made
but given time the scars we left behind will fade
we have time
we all have time
[growan, spoken]
benjamin moved into a room that had once belonged to the children
[tir, spoken]
in march of 1966, benjamin and elowen celebrated locryn’s twenty+second birthday
[tonnow, spoken]
they weren’t to know, however, that benjamin has also aged in his own particular way to the age of twenty+two
[lanow, spoken]
he was now the same age as his son
[treth, spoken]
over the following one hundred and seventy+six weeks, every sunday morning
benjamin picked fresh flowers from the garden to brighten elowen’s bedside table
[avoryow, spoken]
and walked with her over the cliffs and along the coastal path to the parish church and the graveyard beside it
[ebron, spoken]
where they would visit their daughter, lowen
[elowen keene]
if we are young
what is young?
we can’t hold on to all the years we might have lost
for holding on can come at much too high a cost
and a life is always more than it appears
for a life cannot be measured by its years
if we are old
what is old?
we’re all dropping down the ladder rung by rung
but a person can be old and yet be young
for a life is but the sum of all its parts
a memory of moments in our hearts
there’s still time
we still have time
[tewes, spoken]
each sunday morning, their walk would take them approximately one hour, twenty+two minutes and fifty+four seconds
ending at the lane that led to the bottom of their garden
[avoryow, spoken]
but one sunday morning, july twentieth, 1969
benjamin and elowen’s walk did not end at the bottom of their garden
but took an unexpected detour 41 miles south to the royal cornwall infirmary
[female strangers]
we cannot choose when we arrive upon this earth
we can’t control the circumstances of our birth
but we have time
[avoryow, female strangers]
and we cannot predict the length of our last breath
we all have time
even in the moment of our death
[female strangers]
we have time
we still have time
[tonnow, spoken]
that evenin’, on the twentieth of july, 1969, at 8:17 p.m. greenwich mean time
commander neil armstrong and pilot buzz aldrin landed the lunar module eagle in the sea of tranquility
