STRAWBS
"Time And Life"
(Cousins-Cronk)

Time is the power, the enemy hour
The soul survivor of the news, the headlines
Life is a friend, I value its end
For I can take it when I choose, the deadlines.

Time and life will meet at dawn
The swords have been drawn for the takers.

Time has no heart, it wins from the start
Was I so foolish as to try to ignore it?
Life is complete and proud in defeat
At last I understand why I adore it.

Time and life fight to the end
But life has to bend to her makers.

Time and life will meet at dawn
The swords have been drawn for the takers
Time and life fight to the end
But life has to bend to her makers
Time and life will meet at dawn
The swords have been drawn for the takers
Time and life fight to the end
But life has to bend to her makers
Time and life will meet at dawn
The swords have been drawn for the takers
Time and life fight to the end
But life has to bend.
