It's Time

by slm - Libra

The great equalizer of life is the number of hours in a day
We all have the same number but so many are thrown away
We have so many choices as we journey through our time
When the clock stops it's ticking, what will others find?

We journey through the years, all we leave is just a dash
The years go by so quickly and the hours go by so fast
So many good intentions left forgotten along the way
Scattered on this road of life, like the hours in a day

We all have many choices as we journey through our time
Searching for some answers and the peace we hope to find
There's more to life than wasting time and throwing it away
It's all about our choices and how we spend our time each day

If I could put time in a bottle and save it for another day
Would that be time I've wasted, or a gift I've thrown away?
Today is the day of salvation, this day goes by so fast
Tomorrow may just be a memory, hidden along the dash
