lyrics

I see where you are taking me father time
This road can only lead to one place
And it's time I take a look at all that's given to me
To make sure that I'm not sleeping awake.
And a mind that's apathetic's a legitimate fear
'cause we're here but we'll soon disappear
It's so easy to revert to a sedated state
And forget the promise of a new day

If you want to receive it
You've got to look if you're to see
Don't catch me sleeping
No sleeping on the gift of today
'cause the time I have remaining is ticking away
So much beauty is in the present
So don't let it escape
Every moment's once in a lifetime
So we shouldn't wait

If you want to receive it
You've got to look in order to see
I see where you are taking me father time
I see where you are taking me father time
I see where you are taking me father time
I see where you are taking me
