Time Lyrics

Well, the streets are empty where we used to run
And the cars are all on fire
Yeah, we fall like leaves in the garden of Eden, Eden

Now remember how it felt being in the sun
When I heard the ancient choir
And the dead of night like an angel singing, singing

Time doesn't love you anymore
But I-I-I I'm still knocking at your door
Honey, we can run forever, if forever's what's in store
Oh, time to take me home

On a tree in the garden I carved your name,
An word is spelled desire
Like an ocean deep with the waters even, even

And your love pours down like a waterfall
And I can't escape the tide
Here's my hand, baby take it or leave it, leave it

Time doesn't love you anymore
But I-I-I I'm still knocking at your door
Honey, we can run forever, if forever's what's in store
Oh, time to take me home-ooh oooh oooh oooh oooh

Now we're too young to recognize
Nothing stays the same
Promise I won't be the one to blame

'Cause time doesn't love you anymore
But I-I-I I'm still knocking at your door
Honey, we can run forever, if forever's what's in store
Oh, time doesn't love you like I love you
So take me home-ooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
Let me hear you say, let me hear you say

Time Song Chart

This is the title track of Mikky Ekko's debut album. It was also the last song he recorded for the project. "('Time') really represents a lot of what I went through to get this album done," Ekko told Billboard magazine. "And time is money. It's so valuable to not waste a second doing something that I don't love. That for me is just priceless."

Mikky Ekko wrote this with English producer Fraser T Smith, who has collaborated on such songs as Adele's "Set Fire to the Rain" and Taio Cruz's "Break Your Heart."

Ekko told UK newspaper The Sun: "Ironically 'Time' was the last song to make the album. Fraser and I went to the countryside. We both wanted to get away from the city and write a classic-feeling song. I'm a sucker for love songs so I pulled us in that direction. We finished writing after a healthy glass or two of tequila and I knew 'Time' was going to be the title."
