Flirting with Time - Tom Petty

A coyote ran across the road

On the move without a home

A flash of light reminded me of you

This could well be your last stand

Hold the sunlight in your hand

Spread your fingers, feel the sand fall through

I’ve done all I can do.

Now it’s up to you

You’re flirting with time baby

Flirting with time, but maybe

Time baby, is catching up with you

Shadowmen talk a real good game

Every punchline has your name

You cried out and no one came to you

I’ve done all I can do.

Now it’s up to you

You’re flirting with time baby

Flirting with time, but maybe

Time baby, is catching up with you

Should be more to learn from this

Can’t say I know what it is

No difference tween a hit or miss

It’s true

I’ve done all I can do.

Now it’s up to you

You’re flirting with time baby

Flirting with time, but maybe

Time baby, is catching up with you
