Lyrics I Just Don't Have The Time - Billy Eckstine

I Just Don't Have The Time

I just don’t have the time for chasing rainbows
Yesterday is somewhere fast asleep
Love was in my hand, time at my command
But castles in the sand were meant to keep
I just don’t have the time to find those daydreams
Hiding in the heart that once was me
Wonderful and wise, barefoot and beguiled
Where’s that happy child I used to be?
When I ran through the field searching for a hill to climb
And my heart was as pure as the rain
When my dreams wouldn’t give to the tyranny of time
How I’d like to go back there again
Once again
But I just don’t have the time for chasing rainbows
Youth and truth no longer seem to rhyme
The man inside of me needs the boy I used to be
But I just don’t have the time
No, I just don’t have the time
