Lyrics and chords
7. Make time for love
I think a lot of people today put work commitments before family and friends.
They’re simply far too busy! Priorities all wrong! I’m guilty your honour!
1G C D G
You're too busy, counting all the ripples in the sea,
Em C
Running round in circles needlessly,
D G
Making all those plans so easily.
C
And you're swimming,
D G
floundering in a whirlpool all the time,
Em C
Racing like a fish to catch the line,
Am
While the grains of sand are falling
in this hourglass of mine…
D G
Make time for love,
D G
Make time for love
C D G
You're too busy, thinking that by rushing here and there,
Em C
Power'd by highest motives built on care,
D G
That you'll achieve perfection, climb the stairs.
C D G
And your children, all like buried treasure oh so rare,
Em C
One day soon will not be waiting there,
Am
And the sand within the hourglass is descending through the air…
D G
Make time for love,
D G
make time for love.
C D G
There's a hundred, a thousand things in life still to be done,
Em C
But all these things just can't be done by 'one'
D G
So still the racing clouds… and see the sun,
C D G
Catch the blossom, now before it gently fades away.
Em C
Smell its perfume let it have its say,
Am
Who have you neglected in your race of life today?
D G
Make time for love,
D G
make time for love. :]
