We Shared Time
Eddie Bush
Listen
We chased after the sunshine
As we danced around this place
The clock hands moved as quickly
So much done in haste
Though the hours still blew by
They did not go to waste
We served up life on a platter
And savored the taste
We broke bread
We drank wine
Pondered our truth
Confessed to our lies
Ran to our dreams
Waited in line
Oh what a blessing when we shared time
Many questions unanswered
Leaving us but to guess
What is luck and who is lucky
How happy the hearts in our chest
What’s too young to know what is love is
What age do you know yourself best
To sleep is a waste of good time
Each day the best of the rest
We broke bread
We drank wine
Pondered our truth
Confessed to our lies
Ran to our dreams
Waited in line
Oh what a blessing when we shared time
There is cause for celebration
I say you were a gift
And the memories go racing
Like wind they uplift
And the earth stays in orbit
Round the sun it still swings
And the clouds still floating forward
In my mind you still sing
We broke bread
We drank wine
Pondered our truth
Confessed to our lies
Ran to our dreams
Waited in line
Oh what a blessing when we shared time
Oh what a blessing when we shared time
