Time & Love Whisper Together
(Stafford/Kelley 2016)
Verse 1
Yes, Love is
what binds us,
one soul to
another,
and Time is
what bends us,
one soul hurtling,
one catching.
Verse 2
Yes, Love is
an ember,
smoldering
forever,
until you
remember
the codes,
then it explodes.
Chorus
You never suspect whether
Time & Love whisper together.
You never suspect whether
Time & Love whisper together.
Time & Love whisper together.
Verse 3
Cannot light it,
or fan it,
it has a mind
of its own;
can’t tell what
began it:
a riddle, no ends
or middle.
Verse 4
Yes, Time, the
silent sister
of Love, she’s
always there
to shape her
and twist her,
to haunt you
and flaunt you.
Chorus
You never suspect whether
Time & Love whisper together.
You never suspect whether
Time & Love whisper together.
Time & Love whisper together.
Verse 5
Yes, Time she’s
invisible,
and only when
you’re accustomed,
not thinking it
feasible,
Time implodes,
and Love explodes.
Instrumental (Long one)
Chorus
You never suspect whether
Time & Love whisper together.
You never suspect whether
Time & Love whisper together.
Time & Love whisper together.
Instrumental (Short One)
Ending
Time implodes,
and Love explodes.
to set you afire
you lower, and she higher.
