Lyrics
YOUR OUT OF TIME
Abbreviated Version Copyright © 2007 Gary Steven Lalin All rights reserved
VERSE I
You think that you are fine
How little you do know
As you go about your life
You think your in control
Just like an accident
One that you can't avoid
And in a flash you're a distant memory
VERSE II
You think that you decide
Who that you love or hate
But you don't get to choose
When it will be your fate
How little did you do
How petty was the crime
But it don't matter once your out of time
CHORUS
Your out of luck your out of life
Now its over say goodbye
And in the blink of an eye
Now its dark say goodnight
YOUR OUT OF TIME
YOUR OUT OF TIME
YOUR OUT OF TIME
INSTRUMENTAL (same as verse)
Verse III
That was all there was
All things come to an end
You never thought that you
would end up cold and dead
Return now to the dust
upon from which you came
you played your final hand its end of game
CHORUS
Your out of luck your out of life
Now its over say goodbye
In the blink of an eye
Its all gone say goodnight
Outro
YOUR OUT OF TIME
YOUR OUT OF TIME
YOUR OUT OF TIME
YOUR OUT OF TIME
YOUR OUT OF TIME
YOUR OUT OF TIME
