“Your Time Is Near” by Caesars

Well it took a long time but you’ve finally worn out your smile
That’s when I knew it,
I’d run out of borrowed time
You always used to say that you could learn a lot from wasting time
And that if you look hard,
you’ll see yourself in your lovers eyes

Your time is near,
it won’t be long
You’ve got to go when you’re called upon
No light of day,
no sight of dawn
Don’t turn around, just walk right on

You came riding into town in a black and red 5/10
Said, “I’ll be your captain,
and take you back home again”
It’s the third time around but you know I’ll get a second wind
But if we ever get there,
they’ll be no one there to let us in

Your time is near,
it won’t be long
You’ve got to go when you’re called upon
No light of day,
no sight of dawn
Don’t turn around, just walk right on

Packed up my souvenirs, tied my shoes, and sold my car
Yes, I should have known it,
I’d never get very far
Ever since we’ve met you’ve been a hungry and a restless child
You’re just like your father
You know he’s got a poison mind

Your time is near,
it won’t be long
You’ve got to go when you’re called upon
You said you and me, we’d never will pretend
But a broken soul is never gonna mend
