Time Don't Run Out On Me
Anne Murray
Written by Carole King and Gerry Goffin
Did not cross over to the Pop chart but it was a #2 on the Country chart in 1985
Time, don't run out on me
Gotta make you love me the way you used to do
Gotta get back the feeling and put wind in my sails
And chart a course that gets me back to you, back to you
Oh, the lonely days, the lonely nights lookin' back in time
Time, don't run out on me
I've gotta get back to where we used to be (where we used to be)
Time, don't run out on me, don't run out on me
There's one more thing I gotta do before I pack it in
Gotta make the right moves, say the right thing to change your mind
And find a way to get you back again, back again
All the wasted time, the lonely nights lookin' back in time
Time, don't run out on me
I've gotta get back to where we used to be (where we used to be)
Time, don't run out on me
Once I could catch your eye across the room
And know just what you were thinkin'
And when I held you in my arms, we'd dream as one
But those days are gone, somethin' went wrong
And when I wake up to the mornin' sun
I find myself sayin'
Time, don't run out on me, don't run out on me, don't run out on me
Time, don't run out on me
Time, don't run out on me
I've gotta get back to where we used to be (where we used to be)
Time, don't run out on me (time don't run out on me)
(Time, don't run out on me)
(Time, don't run out on me)
(Time, don't run out on me)
FADE
