about

Title track for this album which pretty much sums the predicament that we all face with living. All victims of time passing, we try to hold on to as much as we can, but somehow it keeps on slipping away.

lyrics

Matter of Time
by John Beccia

With a book, in the middle of a lonely night
You are looking for hope and a ray of light
Really there's no easy way....to escape the passing of the day, ye-ah
So much confusion with a growing fright
And it don't really matter who's wrong or right
There's no reason to define....or to try to read between the lines, o-oh

CHORUS - 'Cause it's just a matter of time
You roll with the changes or get behind
The past will be shattered and it's just a matter of time

Try'n to live your life as if it's planned
Try'n to build on a rock but it feels like sand
Everything will crumble down....into pieces fallin' all around, ye-ah
Got to reach for a hand that you can touch
Any little bit of love can mean so much
Livin' life as if it lasts....even though it passes by so fast o-oh
REPEAT CHORUS

In your mind all the memories that will come
Take you back to the places where you are from
Analyzing now and then..... realize the story has to end, ye-ah
Try'n to live your life in the here and now
Try'n to hold what you got but you don't know how,
Passing thru another stage....as you slowly turn another page,o-oh

REPEAT CHORUS twice

Time........Time........Time........Time
