Time In a Bottle

Jim sang this so well, he would save every day like a treasure

And then he would give it away, for there never seems to be enough time

When you are doing the things that you love, singing, writing, painting, it is so delicate

In every way, and it should be saved in a bottle, and it should be kept away

And saved like the beauty in every day, not ever letting it fade

Not wanting it to ever part, always holding love, and life within in your soul, and heart

Let us spend the time, on things we want to do,  that mean the most, with the love, it can see us through

Each tender picture, each bashful smile, each starlight in your eyes

If I could save time in a bottle, I would do it, today, I would do it, tomorrow, I would do it, just for you
