Lyrics

Time Well Spent
Mark Elliott & Kim McLean

He followed his dad to the factory floor
Through the Union halls and company store
The years ticked by like the tapping of his wrench
And he never thought to question
If it was time well spent

He doesn?t miss a chance to beam about his bride
The one who stole his heart and how she made him feel alive
Through their hopes and dreams and sweet remember when?s
They never thought to question if it was time well spent

Rivers run and rainbows bend
A new day starts where the last one bends
And when I look back at the life I?ve lived
I don?t want to question if it was time well spent


Well he sits in his chair with her picture in his hand
And his feet propped up on his pension plan
Oh the kids stop by to spend the afternoon with him
And they never think to question if it was time well spent

Rivers run and rainbows bend
A new day starts where the last one bends
And when I look back at the life I?ve lived
I don?t want to question if it was time well spent


He doesn?t watch his clock
Or count the days of the week
?Cause he knows he can never lose what was never his to keep

Rivers run and rainbows bend
A new day starts where the last one bends
And when I look back at the life I?ve lived
I don?t want to question if it was time well spent
I don?t want to question if it was time well spent
