Time - Boz Scaggs

Somebody ought to have told me

Told me you couldn’t be true

Somebody ought to have told me now

But that wouldn’t be like you

No ones got to tell me

After all you put me through

You dropped me like a habit

Of which you had a few

Your scent is on the glass tonight

Swirling in the wine

Scrambling the back of my brain

The irony sublime

It’s warm bouquet and pungent flame

Light this ancient street

The avenue of no name

I fall into its beat

Nobody loved like you

Time won’t you let me be

After all that we’ve been through

I talk to myself cause I aint got nobody else

Nobody else but you

I’ve walked for miles

I’ve walked a long time

To get to the place that I’ve got to.

yeah

There’s nothing left and nobody.

nobody

Nobody left but you

Time please set me free

Why couldn’t you be true

I walk that walk.

yeah

I talk that talk

But there’s nobody left but you.

you

Time won’t you let me be

After all that we’ve been through

I talk to myself cause I aint got nobody else

Nobody left but you.

you
