sun valley gun club - time lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
my uncle who uses the bottle to stay warm
he never has much, but on christmas
he buys us packs of baseball cards
he sits by a tree like a lion in the heat
in california, playing pink floyd and singing to me

[pre-chorus]
“you were young”
“and life is long”
“the song is over”
“the time is gone”

[chorus 1]
but time doesn’t really exist
it’s only a name for a thing you couldn’t possibly change

[verse 2]
my friend’s doin’ stand-up in a midtown bar
to the backs of the trust-fund babies from the lumberyard
my friend with black streaks from cheeks to chin
my friend with the child’s body, but the hips of a woman

[pre-chorus]
“you were young”
“and life is long”
“the song is over”
“the time is gone”

[chorus 2]
but time doesn’t mean anything
everything that’s happened will always be happening

[verse 3]
head in hands
we can’t always be
sobbing, tensing timelessly
and we can’t always be forgetting
any more than an hour may p-ss, fast or slow
or the day hang still and just so
but just so you know

[refrain]
i’m still missin’ her
i’m still missin’ her

[verse 4]
i’m playin’ outfield on the tee-ball team
my back to the river where they pull out her body

[pre-chorus]
“you were young”
“and life is long”
“the song is over”
“the time is gone”

[chorus 3]
but time doesn’t care about time
it’s always the first and the last day of your life
