TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE — The Rolling Stones

(M. Jagger/K. Richards)

Yes, star crossed in pleasure the stream flows on by Yes, as we're sated in leisure, we watch it fly

And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

Time can tear down a building or destroy a woman's face Hours are like diamonds, don't let them waste

Time waits for no one, no favours has he Time waits for no one, and he won't wait for me

Men, they build towers to their passing yes, to their fame everlasting Here he comes chopping and reaping, hear him laugh at their cheating

And time waits for no man, and it won't wait for me Yes, time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

Drink in your summer, gather your corn The dreams of the night time will vanish by dawn

And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

No no no, not for me....
