Out Of Time

Allan Taylor · Out Of Time [1991]

When it's your time to go away

I hope I have the strength to say

I hope it turns out fine for you



Maybe I'll smile, I'll kiss your cheek

I'll look strong when I'm feeling weak

Isn't that what I'm supposed to do



You're still here but I know you've gone

Your eyes are looking towards the sun

Following its journey across the sea



Your land is pink flamingo warm

Your land is summer coming home

I know that's where you need to be



It kind of caught me out of time

I was running so fast, I was feeling fine

I had it all, I didn't want no more

But you were wanting and I never saw



I wanted you to hurt like me

What a fool, I couldn't see

You'd been hurting longer than I knew



Maybe you played your part too well

You held it back and you couldn't tell

You had to go before I knew it too



It kind of caught me out of time

I was running so fast, I was feeling fine

I had it all, I didn't want no more

But you were wanting and I never saw



When it's your time to go away

I hope I have the strength to say

I hope it works out fine for you
