Time

Has it only been a day
Since you begun to pack your things?
Has it only been a week
Since you told me had to leave?

And has it only been a month
Since I asked you what was wrong?
Has it only been a year
Since I first held you, my dear?

So little time to say I love you
So little time to say goodbye
And I hope that you'll be faithful
Or at least I hope you'll try

'Cause I don't know how long I can be alone
The song goes on and on when you're not home

It's been the longest year
Since you left me here
This month goes on and on
Since you told me you were wrong

And these weeks've been so slow
Since you said that you'd come home
Now I only have a day to wait
To kiss when you step off the plane

No I don't mind if time goes fast or slow
I'll take all the clocks off the walls when we get home.
