Time Machine
David J Caron Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We got a time machine, sea of time submarine
Leap like a trampoline, take us to the never-been

Through the ambiguity, there's believability
There's always point in believing in what can't be found, hey
It doesn't matter to me, if you can't see what can be
There's always ways of reversing what you can't turn round, no!
I don't wanna be dreaming what I'll never know
So punch a date you can feel into the time control and pull the lever

There's a place they say lives forever
Nobody's ever returned there ever never
But we've a reason to leap into the unforeseen
There's a moment that we need to find
Lost in the somewhere that made up our time
Let's get together and we can be our time machine back through whenever

'Cause we will never know, unless we ever go
And then we'll always know, that we will never know

There's an invisible key, it was so easy to see
It disappeared as the time in which we passed was wound, hey
But time is only a thief, if we lack the belief
To reinvent the regrets to which we think we're bound, no!

I don't wanna be dreaming what I'll never know
So punch a date you can feel into the time control and pull the lever

There's a place they say lives forever
Nobody's ever returned there ever never
But we've a reason to leap into the unforeseen, you gotta trust me
There's a moment that we need to find
Lost in the somewhere that made up our time
Let's get together and we can be our time machine back through whenever

Hit the button to jump outta sight
Close your eyes and you'll feel the light
Back through the seas of time we'll dive our submarine
A leap in time trampoline
There's no reason to fear what we learn,
That's why it's clear we have to return
And make the future the past has always intervened like we were never
Strength will be our gate
Now will be our time
Memory will be our date
What we feel will be our sign

Belief will be our fate
The future we will find
Forever is too late
To leave the past behind

Strength will be our gate
Now will be our time
Memory will be our date, we'll learn
What we feel will be our sign

Belief will be our fate
The future we will find
Forever we can't wait return just
To leave the past behind

I don't wanna be dreaming what I'll never know
So punch a date you can feel into the time control and pull that lever

There's a place they say lives forever
Nobody's ever returned there ever never
But we've a reason to leap into the unforeseen, you gotta trust me
There's a moment that we need to find
Lost in the somewhere that made up our time
Let's get together and we can be our time machine back through whenever

Hit the button to jump outta sight
Close your eyes and you'll feel the light
Back through the seas of time we'll dive our submarine
A leap in time trampoline
There's no reason to fear what we learn,




That's why it's clear we have to return
And make the future the past has always intervened 'cause we were never
