Description
I wanted to do my best to write a song that would make people feel good and get the toes tappin! I think it also has a very American traditional folk sound, and I realize it probably won’t be a hit on American Country radio, but I hope there’s an audience for it somewhere.

Lyrics
The “Time” Song
Ain’t it time to get away
I need a break and I need one today
I’m No good to anyone
When things are going this way
Too much news and information
Messing up my concentration
Nothing left to say
Ain’t time time time for a better choice
Free my soul and say goodbye to all this noise.
You only find peace of mind when you learn to be kind.
Say goodbye to all the news
Time for me and you
And time ain’t the enemy
And time ain’t your friend
It’s what you make it my
and how time is spent.
And you may not be a warning
You wont get another morning
And that’ll be the end
Ain’t it time time time to make a better choice
Free your soul and say goodbye to the noise
You only find peace of mind in a world that is kind
Say goodbye to all the news
It’s time for me and you
Chorus
Bridge
Time Time Time Time Time Time
Time for me and you
Time time time
For me and you
Time time time
For Me and you.
Ain’t it time to get away
I need a break and I need one today
I’m No good to anyone
When things are going this way
Too much news and information
Messing up my concentration
Nothing left to say
Ain’t time time time for a better choice
Free my soul and say goodbye to all this noise.
You only find peace of mind when you learn to be kind.
Say goodbye to all the news
Time for me and you
And time ain’t the enemy
And time ain’t your friend
It’s what you make it my
and how time is spent.
And you may not be a warning
You wont get another morning
And that’ll be the end
Ain’t it time time time to make a better choice
Free your soul and say goodbye to the noise
You only find peace of mind in a world that is kind
Say goodbye to all the news
It’s time for me and you
Chorus
Bridge
Time Time Time Time Time Time
Time for me and you
Time time time
For me and you
Time time time
For Me and you.
