You wonder if a song
Can be one phrase long
An endless flow
Going on and on
Like a circular breath
The spinning of earth
As Mary gives birth
Each Christmas again
The time of year when
We all make new plans
All those cycles in life
Working nine till five
Over and over
Again and again
The hearts are burning
Of young lovers yearning
For the perfect romance
We save time
We make time
We lose time after time
The seasons return
But years go by
We save time
We make time
We lose time after time
The seasons return
But years go by
Oh we kill time
We keep time
We need time flies
The seasons return
But years keep passing by
