Mesmerized, waiting as the sun begins to drown In her eyes fascination dancing like a clown There we will be, watching as the day slips into the sea Forever that moment stays with me Overawed, sweeping over land towards the sky I'm hypnotized, a million clouds like memories pass by And now, now I can see When I was young it didn't matter to me But time drives on endlessly Into the night Chase it while they're moving the goals But the devil is in the detail so One day you'll look up and you'll know There's no persuading time, time Wondering, demanding raging never standing still Oh, you're hanging on to a train that never stops and never will Soon you're gonna have to let go 'Cause it's moving too fast for you to hold With luck time will let you grow old Before you realize It's the one deal that no-one can make It's the one cycle no-one can break It's the liberty no-one can take There's no persuading time Time There's no persuading time
