Who Needs Time
The sunrise sets high in the sky
Keeping track of time
For you and I
But who needs time when you've got a lifetime
Yeah, who needs time when you've got a lifetime
Dreaming between the waves
We wave off our dreams for now
Because the present is so much better
You know, it's so much better when you're present
Yeah, it's always better when you're present
The sun is high in the sky
Keeping track of you and I
We've lost all sense of time
Yeah, this time we've lost all sense
But who needs sense when you've got a lifetime
Yeah, who needs sense when you've got a lifetime
A lifetime without time, a lifetime with no time
Wouldn't that make sense
Doesn't that make sense
Yeah, sense, sometimes it takes a lifetime
Now the day is getting low
We got no special place to go
Let's go and make it special
We've got a lifetime to make it special
Oh, we've got a lifetime to make it special
Won't ya come and make it special
If ya came, it'd be so special
Dreaming between the waves
We wave off our dreams for now
Rolling out to sea
A lifetime, you and me
A lifetime,
you and me
Who needs time

This is fantastic, I love it Lisa! What a clever poet you are : ) Perhaps Johny and I can put a tune to it. I don't have a ukulele (which I'm sure Jack Johnson would love). We do have accordian, sax, clarinet, flute, piano hmmm, this could be interesting....
ReplyDeleteI love it! (And can magically hear the melody quite well through the words.)
ReplyDeleteAlso...you came home with a ukelele, too, eh? :)
Summer, this needs you and Johny... along with an accordion, sax, clarinet, flute, and piano! If you two come up with something, let me know. You guys could make anything sound good!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Emily! It helped pass the time on the plane. Hard to leave Hawaii without a ukulele, huh? The uke business is booming over there... bigger than pineapples even! Although maybe not quite as tasty. :)
