Lyrics Time, The Thief - Bruce Hornsby

Time, The Thief

Time the thief has stolen away
All move away, time is change
But you and I can move as one
Time’s elastic change
Our world is nothing but change
Elastic change
Time slows down for, for me
Bending, curving beam
This is our time, our finite time
Seize it with serenity and clarity
Lose ourselves in our every passing whiles
Passing little whiles
Time’s elastic change, a lasting change
Time the thief has stolen away, away
Thief, time passes slowly
For those who move
I’m sentimental about one minute ago
But I move on, on
On and on
Stolen away, away, away
Time, the thief
