Time may be precious, and the time may be spent
Hopes you envisioned, false hopes I have met
Your thoughts of tomorrow, they may not come to pass
But in the next lifetime, learn more than the last

There ain't no time, there ain't no time for cryin'
And there ain't no time, there ain't no time for pain
There ain't no time, there ain't no time for lyin'
There's only so much time before I go

The wind may not blow, and the sun may not shine
A lifelong companion, or the hurtin' is mine
Love locked in a tower, may not come to see
What hasn't been born, and what might never be

There ain't no time, there ain't no time for cryin'
And there ain't no time, there ain't no time for pain
There ain't no time, there ain't no time for lyin'
There's only so much time before I go

Maybe a smile of conviction
Maybe a soul sacrifice
Wanting to live with affection
Or finding paradise

Prophecies hidden, and the knowledge within
Reflects my perception, of those times that I bring
Your own understanding, and the power of thought
The fire inside, and the lesson, oh, your lesson

There ain't no time, there ain't no time for cryin'
And there ain't no time, there ain't no time for pain
There ain't no time, there ain't no time for lyin'
There's only so much time before I go
