I Got No Time For You
I got no time for you
When you were seventeen, I was nothing but a thought
because you were then in '53, there's nothing yet of me
When you were taking your first steps
my grandfather took his test to get into the second grade
a million miles away
So I got no time for you
I saw the pictures of the day when you grew up and moved away
Your mother, she looked proud of you
It's all that she could do
I saw the photos when you cried, I saw the photos
when you died
I saw the start, I saw it all
I know you better than yourself
But if I was alive when you were alive
Things would be better
So I got not time for you
When you were seventeen, I was nothing but a thought
because you were then in '53, there's nothing yet of me
When you were taking your first steps
my grandfather took his test to get into the second grade
a million miles away
So I got no time for you
I saw the pictures of the day when you grew up and moved away
Your mother, she looked proud of you
It's all that she could do
I saw the photos when you cried, I saw the photos
when you died
I saw the start, I saw it all
I know you better than yourself
But if I was alive when you were alive
Things would be better
So I got not time for you
