Words and music by Christopher Cross and Rob Meurer
Lost in the future
Worried about the past
Willful and lazy
Pedaling nowhere fast
She works her wonders
Keeping me in today
Reaching through my darkness
Reminding me how to play
And she says
Save your sadness for the bad times
Time is not your enemy
Save your sadness for the bad times
For now you are with me
Nothing is certain
Certainly nothing new
Hoping some light shines
On us before we're through
She spends her heartbeats
Seeing the best in you
As I learn my mind the more I find
The things she says are true
You live gracefully
Having faith in me
She says
Save your sadness for the bad times
Time is not your enemy
Save your sadness for the bad times
For now
Save your sadness for the bad times
For now you are with me
