JUST A MATTER OF TIME      There was a time   You had no need for rhythm   or rhyme   And the world seemed so wild   and so free   You just wrapped yourself up   in a dream   all you had to do was believe   and nothin’ was out of your reach   so sure how it all falls in line   it’s just a matter of time   it’s just a matter of time      then you wake up one day   all your dreams somehow   faded away   the road that you followed   I turned   You can’t find where the   fire once burned   can’t look yourself straight   in the eyes   in your heart of hearts…   you’ve compromised   baby one day…we’ll all cross   that line   it’s just a matter of time   it’s just a matter of time      all alone in the still of the night   you come face to face with   your pride   and how much you wanted   it all   you can’t believe now you’re   taking the fall      then you reach out one day   to the light of a new   dawning day   and you take just one small   grain of sand   right into the palm of your hand   and maybe you find in the end   you’re able to dream….   Once again   and baby you fall back in line   it’s just a matter of time   it’s just a matter of time
