GIVE ME TIME song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

give me time babe
give me time
give me time babe
just give me time

Now, to review:
The A-Theory of Time
is more than you knew
The past, present and future
lined up in a line.
All things past, present and future
A Theory of Time

The B-Theory of Time
Things relate to each other
as earlier or later
like sister to a brother
Past, present and future
are merely the way
we conceptualize
these things day to day

Professor McTaggart
came with this idea,
And even figured
out the contradictions here
Plus which the way
we use language today
interferes with our
understanding what we say

give me time babe
just give me time
give me time babe
could that be a crime?
give me time and
I will make you mine
give me time
give me a sign

The very word “time”
"time" is a flaw.
The idea of time
is a noun not a law

and Heraclitus
put it so very nice
"You can’t step in
the same river twice."

Actually you can’t put
the same foot in water true
Not only that,
but you are the river too.

It is impossible
to experience
a moment in the present
in the present tense

By time you get to it,
already in the past.
By the time you understand it,
you can not make it last

give me time babe
just give me time
give me time babe
and I will make it shine

only the present
exists as it is is
Presentism looks like
yours and mine and his

Eternalism business
says the past is real
the future is for certain
only if you feel

time is an illusion
function in the Bang
never what you think
but only what you sang

and you are not
the thing you think you are
you were made from space dust
born inside a star

So this is the S theory
that light it cannot move
but permeates the night
and time is left to prove

that all things are photons
and life is just a blur
and all that you will be
is all that you were

give me time babe
just give me time
give me time babe
turn water into wine

the mind is not is not
what you think it is
and all of reality
is composed of only ifs....
