Billy Joel This is the Time Lyrics:
We walked on the beach
beside that old hotel
They're tearing it down now
But it's just as well
I haven't shown you
everything a man can do
So stay with me baby
I've got plans for you

This is the time to remember
Cause it will not last forever
These are the days
To hold on to
Cause we won't
Although we'll want to
This is the time
But time is gonna change
You've given me the best of you
And now I need the rest of you

Did you know that before
you came into my life
It was some kind of
miracle that I survived
Some day we will both look back
And have to laugh
We lived through a lifetime
And the aftermath

This is the time to remember
Cause it will not last forever

These are the days
To hold on to
Cause we won't
Although we want to
This is the time
But time is gonna change
I know we've got to move somehow
But I don't want to lose you know

Sometimes it's so easy
To let a day
Slip on by
Without even seeing each other at all
But this is the time you'll
turn back and so will I
And those will be the days
you can never recall

And so we embrace again
Behind the dunes
This beach is cold
On winter afternoons
But holding you close is
like holding the summer
sun
I'm warm from the memory
of days to come

This is the time to remember
Cause it will not last forever
These are the days
To hold on to
But we won't
Although we'll want to
This is the time
But time is gonna change
You've given me the best of you
But now I need the rest of you
