Got our heels dug in but time is draggin' us toward
The time when time won't matter anymore
They say life is but a vapor just a blip on the radar screen
Not the dates on your tombstone but the dash in between
There's just today, that's all we got
There's just today, that's all we got
Tick tock, the past is locked, the future's far away
You can't go back, you can't hurry it up
You gotta learn to live today
Tick tock, it's now o'clock, the little hand is ours
The second hand sweeps us around
And the big hand has the power
The big hand has the power
Well am I livin' or am I dyin', will the world get another day?
I hear a baby cryin' and I pluck out another gray
I'm always talkin' about a change but talkin's all I've done
I'm gonna start tomorrow but tomorrow never comes
There's just today, that's all we got
There's just today, that's all we got
Tick tock, the past is locked, the future's far away
You can't go back, you can't hurry it up
You gotta learn to live today
Tick tock, it's now o'clock, the little hand is ours
The second hand sweeps us around
And the big hand has the power
The big hand has the power
Always runnin' late don't procrastinate
Leavin' in a hurry, life is rollin' on
Give me just a second wait another minute
Sleep another hour see another day dawn
Call you next week, see you in a month
Celebrate a season now another year's gone
Well there goes a decade, a century, millennium
And here comes eternity, eternity, eternity
Here comes eternity, eternity, what's up with eternity?
Tick tock, the past is locked, the future's far away
You can't go back, you can't hurry it up
You gotta learn to live today
Tick tock, it's now o'clock, the little hand is ours
The second hand sweeps us around
And the big hand has the power
The big hand has the power
Tick tock, the past is locked, the future's far away
You can't go back, you can't hurry it up
You gotta learn to live today
Tick tock, it's now o'clock, the little hand is ours
The second hand sweeps us around
And the big hand has the power
The big hand has the power
