Buying Time

If I couldn’t find
another day tomorrow
could I buy the time
I couldn’t borrow

If i couldn’t find
hands that were steady
could I buy the time
that wasn’t ready

ah ah ay
it was in front of me
ah ah ay
it was in front of you
ah ah ay
I have a credit history
ah ah ay
I’ll buy some time for you

if I couldn’t find
a clock with a throttle
could I buy the time
sent in a bottle

some say there is a god
some say that time exists
believe me, believe me not
time consciousness persists
some say forgiveness can
be bought and can be sold
so I’ll buy some time
before we get too old

ah ah ay
it was in front of me
ah ah ay
it was in front of you
ah ah ay
I have a credit history
ah ah ay
I’ll buy some time for you
