"Time" lyrics

Dorian Harewood, Joy Woods, Ryan Vasquez, Jordan Tyson, John Cardoza & Original Broadway Cast of The Notebook Lyrics

"Time"
(from "The Notebook (Original Broadway Cast Recording)" soundtrack)

[OLDER NOAH:]
Time to get up
Time to get up now
And let the bones
Crack into place
I look in the mirror
I see an old man
But in my eyes
A young man's face

Time, time, time, time
It never was mine, mine, mine, mine
But you know what is
Love, hope, breath, and dreams
As cliché as that seems

[MIDDLE ALLIE:]
Look at this dress
It was my favorite
Because my mother hated it so much
So I'll give it to my daughter
And she'll give it to her daughter
It's a piece of me that they can touch
When I'm gone

[ALL:]
Time, time, time, time
It never was mine, mine, mine, mine

[LOW VOICES:]
But you know what is

[HIGH VOICES:]
Sky

[LOW VOICES:]
Sky

[HIGH VOICES:]
Light

[LOW VOICES:]
Light

[HIGH VOICES:]
Red

[LOW VOICES:]
Red

[ALL:]
Morning light
And that is why we fight
To keep going
Keep running
Keep standing
Keep leaning
Keep learning
Keep hoping

[OLDER NOAH:]
I wanna run
Like my legs used to run

[All NOAHs:]
Breathing in, breathing out
My arms stretched out
And I wanna know that my old heart can grow
Like spring again

[ALL:]
A new beginning

[OLDER NOAH:]
But here I am
The same inside
The paint is chipping
But the foundation's alright

[YOUNGER NOAH and MIDDLE NOAH:]
I wanna run
Like my legs used to run
I wanna run to you

[ENSEMBLE:]
Time, time, time, time

[YOUNGER NOAH and MIDDLE NOAH:]
I wanna run
Like my legs used to run

[ENSEMBLE:]
Time, time, time, time

[YOUNGER NOAH and MIDDLE NOAH:]
I wanna run to you

[SOME VOICES:]
Time, time, time, time

[OTHER VOICES:]
Keep going
Keep running

[SOME VOICES:]
Time, time, time, time

[OTHER VOICES:]
Keep standing

[YOUNGER ALLIE and MIDDLE ALLIE:]
It never was mine

[SOME VOICES:]
Time, time, time, time

[OTHER VOICES:]
Keep leaning
Keep learning

[SOME VOICES:]
Time, time, time, time

[YOUNGER ALLIE and MIDDLE ALLIE:]
It never was mine

[OTHER VOICES:]
Keep hoping

[MIDDLE ALLIE:]
Time, time, time, time

[OTHER VOICES:]
Time to get up
Time to wake up now
