You see, its not just a random thing that these songs want to wrap themselves in with what we are doing, I know that it will seem odd but I honestly believe that there is intent involved in the songs that " present themselves to us" and we should be paying better attention.
When it goes up Paul .... can .....Only Time Will Tell by Buffett be first? Is that the name of it? I just pay attention to the phrase ....’I'm feeling for the sound of time’ ......

Meanwhile, even before the thread is set up, you guys be thinking of what has ALREADY been mentioned. That should happen first... we should mention what has been brought forward already.... then later we can add the songs that come to us as we go.

Just feeling for the sound of time here and this is one way to do it. <g> Linda”



Jimmy Buffett
Album: Banana Wind
Track 1

Scales and clocks just can't be trusted
Keys and locks are destined to be busted
Metaphors were never made for keeping score
And I'm feeling for the sound of time

Is it the answer or just a suggestion
Is love what we truly want or merely a protection
Is this music made to last or crumble like a shell
Is there heaven here on earth or is this really hell

Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
Only time will tell is there a message in this song
Will it ever make sense will it ever ring a bell
Only time will tell

Are we destined to be ruled by a bunch of old white men
Who compare the world to football and are programmed to defend
I'd like to try a princess or a non-terrestrial
Who is neither boast nor bashful is there really such a girl

Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
Only time will tell is there a message in this song
Will it ever make sense will it ever ring a bell
Only time will tell

I woke up this morning feeling absolutely grand
For nearly half a century I've been singing in a band
I'd like to think I'll make it to two thousand and one
Will the party be at my house God I wonder who will come

Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
Only time will tell is there a message in this song
Will it ever make sense will it ever ring a bell
Only time will tell

Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
Only time will tell is there a message in this song
Will it ever make sense on this crazy carousel
Only time will tell

Only time will tell

Hey guys,

You can create a new thread for each song.

This thread is for "Only Time Will Tell"

Start another thread for another song, so they don't all run together.

OK?
