TIME IN A BOTTLE

Jim Croce

From the author of "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown," "Workin' at the Car Wash Blues," and "The Night that I Fell in Love with the Roller Derby Queen" (you know that one right, his "bleach blond bomber" who was "built like a 'fridgerator with a head"), a heart felt and sentimental song:

TIME IN A BOTTLE

--Words and Music by Jim Croce

If I could save time in a bottle,
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day 'till eternity passes away,
Just to spend them with you.

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with.

If I could make days last forever,
If words could make wishes come true,
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again I would spend them with you.

But there never seems to be enough time

To do the things you want to do once you find them

I've looked around enough to know

That you're the one I want to go through time with.

If I had a box just for wishes,
And dreams that had never come true,
The box would be empty except for the memory of
How they were answered by you.

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with.
