Lay me down to sleep
Sweet dreams never come to me
Just some time between two crazy days
Guess I can't complain I get pleasure
I get pleasure I get pain
I'm just trying to get as much as I gave
Cutting loose from all this lonely misery
Gotta get a move on
Time ain't gonna wait for me

Writing's on the wall
I can hear the beckon call
Of the things that I have yet to see
Waitin' round be damned
Losing faith in who I am
Got to shake myself and tell me that I'm free
I ain't one to hang around and see
Gotta get a move on
Time ain't gonna wait for me
Time ain't gonna wait for me

Patience is just lost on me
This thing they call it destiny
Gimme all that I've got
Coming to me, yeah

Lay me down to sleep
Sweet dreams never come to me
Like I'm always just one wink away
I can't stand to wonder what could be
Gotta get a move on
Time ain't gonna wait for me
Time ain't gonna wait for me
Time ain't gonna wait for me
Time ain't gonna wait for me
