So quickly time will come
And time will go
It runs on by
It steals your hopes and dreams
And one last chance
You never know

I can see it now
I can feel its scolding hand
Saying, 'Come on now, you've got to run'

You wonder
Can you stop the hands of time?
Erase your fate
He's laughing
Knowing that he's got control
Just watch and wait

I can see it now
I can hear the whispered voice
Telling me now, 'You've got no time to waste'

It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time

And you've got to see
You have the answers
You have the strength
There's no denying
It's in your hands
It's in your hands

It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time

Living, breathing, touching, feeling
Hoping, dreaming, still deceiving
Searchin', findin', losin', cryin'
Know the truth, you're dyin'
Oh, you're dyin'

It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time

Remember who you are
And what you have
The time is yours
Your flame is burning out
So guard it well
It may go out

I can see it now
I can see the end of time
Holding the answers to all your fears

It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time

It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time

It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
