Verse:
It takes a long time to kill a man
Fifty-five years at least
Until he breaks down
Starts to look underground
To go off and get him some peace
I want to die a lot quicker than that
If my it's my only way out
I've been counting up the costs
Getting up on that cross
I want to know what this all about
Chorus:
Father Time,
Steals our days,
Like a thief.
There's no price that I wouldn't pay,
To get some relief
Now I'm an empty shell,
Of a man I don't like so well
I am a living, breathing hell,
Come on and resurrect me
Verse:
I tried to drown the pain with a friend of mine
It didn't seem to help
Ah she's got a pretty face
With her wedding lace
But I'm still waking up with myself
I know what it means to choke it down
Up, down till your legs get weak
I know what it's like on a Saturday night
To be alone on a crowded street
Chorus:
Father Time,
Steals our days,
Like a thief.
There's no price that I haven't paid,
To get some relief
And now I'm the shell of a man,
I can't begin to understand,
Have I forgotten who I am?
Come on and resurrect me
Bridge:
Resurrect me
Resurrect me
Resurrect me
Resurrect me
B5 A5-G5
Resurrect me
Come on and resurrect me
