A friend of mine,
she cries at night
She calls me on the phone
She sees babies everywhere she goes
And she wants one of her own
She's waited long enough she says
And still it can't decide
Pretty soon she'll have the juice
And it tears her up inside
She is scared,
scared to run out of time
I see my folks are getting home
And I watch their bodies change
I know they see the same in me
And it makes us both feel strange
No matter how you tell yourself,
it's what we all go through
Those lines are pretty hard to take
when they're staring back
at you
Scared to run out of time
We need a choice, it's getting so hard
So much more to say
Life can get mighty precious
When there's less of it to weigh
I'm scared to run out of time
Just when I thought I had enough
And all my tears were shed
No promise left unbroken
There are no painful words unsaid
You came along and showed me
That I could leave it all behind
You opened
up my heart again
And in much to my sur prise
I found love, babe
I found love, girl
Oh, I found love, don't you know, girl
I found you, you, in a nick of time
Don't you know I love you
In a nick of time, baby
Can't you tell I need you
In the nick of time, nick of time
I just wanna lean on you
In the nick of time, nick of time
I just want you to realize
It's all in the nick of time,
baby
I'm gonna stay, babe,
in the nick of time, nick of time
It's gonna last forever,
like the nick of time, nick of time
Na na na, na na na
All in a nick of time, nick of time
I live in a nick of time
