Double Time - John Illsley

Take an hour of every day

Don’t get lost or led astray

Stable door was open wide

Fuse was set but never fired

The past goes fast it never lasts

Right now feels good to me

Cover me I’ll cover you

Colours move from red to blue

Life goes on in double time

All those dreams get left behind

Don’t get the highs without the lows

It’s just the way and so it goes

Remember long hot summer days

Time stood still it never rained

Building bridges throwing stones

Broken hearts some broken bones

Not a care passed through your world

All you wanted was the girl

Cover me I’ll cover you

Colours move from red to blue

Life goes on in double time

All those dreams get left behind

Don’t get the highs without the lows

It’s just the way and so it goes

I’m moving on I’m slipping through

So little time, so much to do

Now someone new is in the tower

Not much sense, too much power

Life goes on in double time

All those dreams get left behind

Don’t get the highs without the lows

It’s just the way and so it goes
