Just a Matter of Time Songtext

von John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band

There was a time you had no need for rhythm
Or rhyme and the world seemed so wild
And so free, you just wrapped yourself up
In a dream, all you had to do was believe
And nothin' was out of your reach
So sure how it all falls in line
It's just a matter of time, it's just a matter of time
Then you wake up one day, all your dreams
Somehow, faded away, the road
That you followed, it turned
You can't find where the fire once burned
Can't look yourself straight, in the eyes
In your heart of hearts, you've compromised
Baby one day, we all cross that line
It's just a matter of time, it's just a matter of time
All alone in the still of the night
You come face to face with
Your pride and how much you wanted
It all, you can't believe now you're taking the fall
Then you reach out one day to the light
Of a new, dawning day and you take
Just one small grain of sand
Right into the palm of your hand
And maybe you find in the end
You're able to dream, once again
And baby you fall back in line
It's just a matter of time, it's just a matter of time
