We have no time to go here or there
we have no time to do or dare
we have no time to ponder at the stars
we have no time to see Saturn or Mars
we have no time to watch or play
or do a chore from yesterday
we have no time to do those things
in our dreams and daily whims
only have time to lay and stare
never again our favourite chair
no time to reminisce or cry
we only have the time to die.
