Time Is a Dancing Bear by Tom Billington Lyrics

Jessica:
One, two, three...

I would take you back, but you won't stay
Another day. Without you there
Everything's broken

Laughter lines are creases in your skin
Where they begin, you'll find me there
Everything's frozen

Time is a dancing bear
Tied to a stake that's driven in the ground
And I'm aware
Without you there, the only way is down

And so we go
Around
Like smoke rings; in spirals we'll rise
Above
Like nightingales in love
There's never enough
Tom:
Time to do as much as you had planned
I understand, without me there
Everything's open

Take me as you find me as I come
Into the streets where, once declared
"Everything's broken."

Time is a dancing bear
Tied to a stake that's driven in the ground
Unaware
Without you there, the only way is down

Jessica and Tom:
And so we go
Around
Like smoke rings; in spirals we'll rise
Above
Like nightingales in love
There's never enough
Time is never enough
Time is never enough

Hoo-ooh... (Hoo-ooh)
In a perfect world, (ooh.)
We'd have so much (We'd have so much...)
Time. (Hoo-ooh)
We'd be one (ooh-ooh.)
Home. (home.)
Tom:
Time is a dancing bear
Tied to a stake that's driven in the ground
Unaware
Without you there, the only way is down

Jessica and Tom:
And so we go (And so we go)
Around (Around)
Like smoke rings; in spirals we'll rise (Like smoke rings; in spirals we'll rise)
Above, (Above,)
Like nightingales in love. (Like nightingales in love.)
There's never enough. (There's never enough.)
Time is never enough. (Time is never enough.)
Time is never enough. (Time is never enough.)
Time is never enough. (Time is never enough.)
