Time is a river that rolls on forever But it always runs dry when we try to get together Living our lives for these all nine-to-five's But I ain't gonna take it no more If I have to beg, steal or borrow Forget about tomorrow starting tonight I'm gonna take back the hours that used to be ours It's the only way love can survive Lord knows that I ain't asking for much Just a little time for us You going your way, and me going mine And time for each other is getting harder to find It's just not enough time left for love And, baby, you know that ain't right If I have to beg, steal or borrow Forget about tomorrow starting tonight I'm gonna take back the hours that used to be ours It's the only way love can survive Lord knows that I ain't asking for much Just a little time for us Just a little time for us Love ain't got a chance in a race against time Everybody knows it can't fly If we're gonna win it, we gotta steal every minute So it's time we made up our minds Beg, steal or borrow Forget about tomorrow starting tonight Take back the hours that used to be ours It's the only way love can survive Lord knows that we ain't asking for much Just a little time for us Just a little time for us Just a little time for us
