Tori Amos – Time Lyrics  Share

From Tori Amos's album: Strange Little Girls

The smart money^,s on Harlow, and the moon is in the street,
And the shadow boys are breaking all the laws.
You^,re east of East St. Louis, and the wind is making speeches,
And the rain sounds like a round of applause.
And Napoleon is weeping in a carnival saloon,
His invisible fiance^,s in the mirror.
The band is going home- it^,s raining hammers, it^,s raining nails.
It^,s true- there^,s nothing left for him down here.

And it^,s time, time, time. And it^,s time, time, time
And it^,s time, time, time that you love.
And it^,s time, time... time.


Well, they all pretend they^,re orphans, and their memory^,s like a train-
You can see it getting smaller as it pulls away.
The things you can^,t rememeber tell the things you can^,t forget,
That history puts a saint in every dream.
Well, she said she^,d stick around until the bandages came off,
But, these Mama boys just don^,t know when to quit.
Matilda asks the sailors, ^,Are those dreams or are those prayers,
So close your eyes, son, this won^,t hurt a bit.^,


[ Time lyrics from

And it^,s time, time, time. And it^,s time, time, time.
And it^,s time, time, time that you love.
And it^,s time, time... time.


Well, things are pretty lousy for a calendar girl,
The boys just dive right off the cars and splash into the street.
And when they^,re on a roll, she pulls a razor from her boots.
And a thousand pigeons fall around her feet.
So put a candle in the window, and a kiss upon his lips,
As the dish outside the window fills with rain.
An just like a stranger with the weeds in your heart,
And pay the fiddler off ^,til I come back again.


And it^,s time, time, time. And it^,s time, time, time.
And it^,s time, time, time that you love.
And it^,s time, time... time.
And it^,s time, time, time. And it^,s time, time, time.
And it^,s time, time, time that you love.
And it^,s time, time... time.
