Nick Of Time Lyrics

Nick Of Time lyrics

A friend of mine she cries at night and she calls me on the phone

Sees babies everywhere she goes and she wants one of her own

She's waited long enough she says and, she still he can't decide

Pretty soon she'll have to choose and it tears her up inside

She is scared

Scared she'll run out of time



I see my folks are getting on and I watch their bodies change

I know they see the same in me and it makes us both feel strange

No matter how you tell yourself, it's what we all go through

Those lines are pretty hard to take when they're starin' back at you

Scared to run out of time



When did the choices get so hard, there's so much more at stake

Life gets mighty precious

When there's less of it to waste

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Scared to run out of time



Just when I thought I'd had enough and all my tears were shed

No promise left unbroken, there were no painful words unsaid

You came along and showed me how to leave it all behind

You opened up my heart again and then much to my surprise

I found love, baby, love in in the nick of time

(Love in the nick of time)

I found love, darlin', love in the nick of time

I found love baby, love in the nick of time
