Rupert Holmes - Love Out of Time lyrics

Love is an only child
Lives where the weeds grow wild
High in the wind you hear it's song

If it should ever stray
Love just might run your way
But it will never stay very long

Don't try to name the place
Don't try to set the pace
Love has another face it can find
There's no reality there's only you and me
Live out of rhyme love out of time

Don't count the days love never over stays
And nothing ever makes it last
Once it's past

And if you try to how, or when, or why
It simply will refuse to play and run away

Here's where I end this song
We didn't end up wrong
Love just ran out of time and space

Tried so to make it be
God knows at least he's free
Still running wild in some quiet place

Lord, it went by so fast
Grateful I have the past
'Though that it couldn't last seems a crime

But, if you have the chance
Don't try to change the dance
Give up your plan share what you can

A life out of rhyme a love out of time
