Steve Winwood - Time is Running Out текст песни

Every day theres something new thats going around

Crazy people getting all dressed up to paint the town

Business men they shake their heads and then they frown

Everybody tries so hard to put them down

It seems to me that maybe they got something going

And if you dont make an effort, then you got no way to know

Time is running out

Woman, can you hear me clear?

I hope that you can

Before you go to sleep at night

Take care of your man

And if you want a love that will always be around forever

Then you finally get it, ah, but you aint gonna have it together

Time is running out, running out

Time is running out, running out

Johnny drives a thunderbird, hes in a big rage

Always being criticized for being his age

In his nose a safety pin and lifes a razor blade

Hes so sick of everything thats been made

It seems to me that maybe hes got bad frustration

And all we can do is try and give the right information

Oh, cause time is running out

Population on the move

So dont you delay

Get yourself right in the groove

n hear what I say

Its no good being lazy

Youve got to get up on your feet and shout

cause itll make you crazy

When you realise youve been left out

Time is running out, running out

Time is running out, running out

Time is running out, running out

In the future theres no room

People standing on your toes

Mother natures on the run

Everybodys got a gun

Soldiers walking in the street

Giving off a lot of heat

There just aint enough to eat

If youre poor, youve got no meat

Advertising in the sky

They like to stick it in your eye

So mad it will make you cry

All the things that you dont need

Trouble in the family (said, separation and the [sea? ])

There is no more unity (remind me what it used to be)

Complications everywhere (it seems to me it has to be)

[? ] people stare (you know its true and)

Time is running out, running out

Time is running out, running out

Television in my home (people watching every day)

Someones talking on the phone (I cant hear a word I say)

Theres no time to be alone (theres no time to get away)

Wonder why your mind is blown (nervous breakdown every day)

Take me where the air is clean

To the country, fresh and green

I just cannot stand this pace

Sorry, but theres no such place

Time is running out, running out

(repeat and fade)
