Iris Saving Time
only for this while
it hasn't come over me
i won't let it fall again
won't let it come close to me
i've got my mind made up now
for one last time
so that i'll feel alright
so that these lives are in line
now you know to be young
isn't the hardest thing you've ever done
know before your time has gone away
you're saving time
happens every now and then
a leak is sprung
a rush and all dries out
and something saves your life
all these eyes that see into me
all the lessons that live through me
now that it's done
you're alive, you're alive
now you know it's enough
showing that faith is all that you've ever won
know before your time has gone away
you're saving time
wing-backed dreams, no more joy you've left undone
(it's not too much to ask)
enter: light, and i feel the sun..
