A friend of mine. she cries at night.
and she calls me on the phone.
Sees babies everywhere she goes and

she wants one of her own.
She's waited long enough
she says. and still he can't decide.
Pretty soon she'll have to choose

and it tears her up inside.
She's scared.

scared to run out of time.
I see my folks are getting on
and I watch their bodies change.
I know they see the same in me and

it makes us both feel strange.
No matter how you tell yourself.

it's what we all go through.
Those lines are pretty hard to take
when they're staring back at you.

00011. scared to run out of time.
When did the choices get so hard
with so much more at stake?
Life gets mighty precious

when there's less of it to waste.
Yeah. ooh. ooh.

scared to run out of time.
Just when I thought I had enough
and all my tears were shed.
No promise left unbroken.

there were no painful words unsaid.
You came along and showed me
how to leave it all behind.
You opened up my heart again

and then. much to my surprise...
...I found love.

love in the nick of time.

I found love. Darlin'.

love in the nick of time.
Hound love. Baby.

love in the nick of time.
