A second a minute an hour a day and it´ gone
Little by little it fades away
Try as you may you can never replace it
A moment of beauty you stumble upon
As long as you treasure whatever it is
Whatever it is can never be wasted
So if we all turned to dust
Better to have loved and lost
´Cause everything has a cost
So if you gonna spend time
Spend it upon me
Spend it upon me
Just give me your time
I don´t want your money
I don´t want your money
I crawled then I walked then I ran
But then I stumbled and fall
Somewhere between the love and the lust
I tried my best I was melioristic
And I´m not saying that I know it all
Maybe I´m a little more self aware
Still get scared but I learned to trust it
So when it comes to us
Afraid I call the odds
I bet that this is love
So if you gonna spend time
Spend it upon me
Spend it upon me
Just give me your time
I don´t want your money
I don´t want your money
And I , I know how hard it is
Graded right at a time like this
So you better believe , believe
Chorus
So if you gonna spend time
Spend it upon me
Spend it upon me
Just give me your time
I don´t want your money
I don´t want your money
