written by Warren Zevon 1993 Zevon Music BMI Time marches on Time stands
still Time on my hands Time to kill Blood on my hands And my hands
in the till Down at the 7-11 Gentle rain Falls on me All life folds
back Into the sea We contemplate eternity Beneath the vast
indifference of heaven The past seems realer than the present to me
now I've got memories to last me When the sky is gray The way it is
today I remember the times when I was happy Same old sun Same old
moon It's the same old story Same old tune They all say Someday
soon My sins will all be forgiven Gentle rain Falls on me All life
folds back Into the sea We contemplate eternity Beneath the vast
indifference of heaven They say "Everything's all right" They say "Better
days are near" They tell us "These are the good times" But they don't
live around here Billy and Christie don't-- Bruce and Patti
don't-- They don't live around here I had a girl Now she's gone She
left town Town burned down Nothing left But the sound Of the front
door closing forever Gentle rain Falls on me All life folds
back Into the sea We contemplate eternity Beneath the vast
indifference of heaven
