Time
Khruangbin Lyrics

That's life
Life is the way it is, with its limitations and the time we have.

If we had more time
Imagining a hypothetical situation where we would have more time.

We could live forever
In this imaginary situation, we could extend our existence without end.

Just you and I
The two people in the song who are at the center of this love story.

We could be together
In this imaginary scenario, the two people could continue to enjoy each other's company indefinitely.

We can play like children play
The ability to rediscover the joy of being like a child again.

We can say like children say
The freedom to speak without inhibitions and embracing simplicity.

Have we got the time
A question that expresses doubt about the feasibility of the ideal scenario being proposed.

We get wise when we grow old
The idea that with age comes wisdom and knowledge.

Get slow when we grow old
The body ages too, and can no longer keep up with youth.

Do you know
A question that seeks confirmation or agreement on something that has just been said.

Here we go
A phrase that signals the start of something.

We can rhyme like children rhyme
Playing with language in a simple, fun way.

We can time like children time
The ability to enjoy the moment without worrying about the future or the past.

Make a plan for when we're old
Acknowledging that old age is inevitable, and making preparations for it.

Reminisce when we get old
Sharing memories and reflecting on the past when one is older.

We can now, when we are here
Living in the present moment and enjoying it fully.

We can then, when we are there
Looking forward to the future and anticipating all the wonderful things that might happen.

That's life
Repeating the refrain and reminding the listener of the song's theme.

Hayat, E a vida, Ово је живот, Ez az élet, Seo an saol, Pura Vida, אלה החיים...
Different ways of saying 'That's life' in different languages, emphasizing that this theme is universal.

Vas an life, 생명, 生活, Na so life be, ชีวิต, それが人生...
Continuation of the previous attribute, providing more examples of how the concept of 'life' is expressed across different cultures.
