Lost in the future

Worried about the past

Willful and lazy

Pedaling nowhere fast



She works her wonders

Keeping me in today

Reaching through my darkness

Reminding me how to play





And she says

Save your sadness for the bad times

Time is not your enemy

Save your sadness for the bad times

For now you are with me



Nothing is certain

Certainly nothing new

Hoping some light shines

On us before we are through

She spends her heartbeats

Seeing the best in you

As I learn my mind the more I find

The things she says are true





And she says

Save your sadness for the bad times

Time is not your enemy

Save your sadness for the bad times

For now you are with me



You live gracefully

Having faith in me



And she says

Save your sadness for the bad times

Time is not your enemy

Save your sadness for the bad times

For now, for now

Save your sadness for the bad times

For now you are with me
