Given Time

Given Time (给予时间) - Peter Hammill

Written by：Peter Hammill

There's no time for dull regrets

No one underwrites your debts

No satisfaction guaranteed

But this much I believe

We make the lives we lead

Best foot forward face the day

As the moment slips away

Like a whisper on the wind

The tide turns as it breaks

Given time

We lead the lives we make

The curve that we trace in time

A shape of our own design

Say it's over when it's done

Did you learn to touch someone

Long ago and far away

Voices linger on

Long ago just yesterday

Caught in the clay of material need

Given time

We make the lives we lead

Given time

We make the lives we leave

Given time

We make the lives we leave
