Los Lobos - This Time lyrics

Why do the days go by so fast
If only time was built to last

If it could learn to take it slow
Then maybe time at last would know

That if Monday, Tuesday should go away
It'll be Wednesday, Thursday then Saturday
And when Sunday comes it's just too late
It's gotta be this time

How come the days
Do what they do maybe if time time only knew

Could be that time don't really know
That it should try to take it slow

Then maybe Monday, Tuesday won't go away
Then maybe Thursday, Friday
Could be like Saturday and when Sunday comes
It's never too late it'll be this time
It's gotta be this time

How come the days do what they do
Maybe if time time only knew

That if Monday, Tuesday should go away
It'll be Wednesday, Thursday then Saturday
And when Sunday comes it's just too late
It's gotta be this time
It's gotta be this time it's never too late
It'll be this time
