Billy Squier – Now Ain't The Time lyrics

Sundown you leave me so lonely, sunrise, treat me the same
This ain't the way that I planned it, playin this game

Daytime's I sit by the fire, talk to and drink with my friends
Waitin' in mute desperation to see you again

I'm down on my luck, I'm on my last dime
I think bout the good life that I left behind
I want you so much, it feels like a crime
I'm dyin' to see you, but now ain't the time

I got my ties to another, you know those feelings I do
They're just the same as the purse strings that bind him to you
Why should I care about you, woman, why should I feel like a fool
Seems that you're all that I live for, you make the rules

I'm down on my luck, I'mon my last dime
I think bout the good life that I left behind
I want you so much, it feels like a crime
I'm dyin' to see you, but now ain't the time

Guess I'll just wait for the moment, we'll slip away for a while

I'm down on my luck, I'm on my last dime
I think about the good life that I left behind
I want you so much, it feels like a crime
I'm dyin' to see you, but now ain't the time
