Time Is All Around

Written by: regina spektor

Lyrics (fan transcription):

You step on all my parts
and then you walk right out the door
and I know that your love ain't ever coming back no more
Time is all around
except inside my clock
Everybody's waiting for their lover to unlock

Leaves become most beautiful when they're about to die
when they're about to fall from trees
when they're about to dry up
Time is all around

I hallucinate a cat between my feet
I'm stepping lightly so as not to hurt it
Everybody wants to say that you have changed
Of course you've changed, you've changed, you've changed
your mind's been rearranged

What am I supposed to love if I don't want to love?
Why am I supposed to? I'm so tired
What am I supposed to love if I don't want to?
I don't want to…
