Hailing from the Hannah, South Carolina, Josh moved to Nashville in 1996 to study music at Belmont University. It was there that he met his current wife, Jennifer Ford, whom he married in 2003. During that same year, he released his debut album, Long Black Train. The title song "Long Black Train" peaked at #13 on Billboard's US Country chart, staying on the charts for over 40 weeks.
Your Man, Josh's 2nd album, was released early 2006. The first single was the title track, "Your Man," which eventually climbed all the way to number 1. His big hit, though, was his second single, "Would You Go With Me." This song solidified the album's soon platinum status. His Christian-themed "Me and God" was released as a single on the Christian radio circuit. It was a moderate success, and was eventually released as a single on the Country radio.
"Time Is Love," is the first single from Josh Turner's fifth studio album. It finds him turning the phrase "time is money" on its head: ("Time is love / Gotta run / Love to hang longer but I got someone who waits / Waits for me and right now she's where I need to be / Time is love, gotta run.") The song was released digitally on December 20, 2011 and for radio adds on January 8, 2012. (Time Is Love Songfacts)
Time Is Love
Josh Turner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make the money while the sunlight shines
But anything I gotta get done
It can get done some other time
Time is love, gotta run
Love to hang longer
But I got someone who waits
She's where I need to be
Time is love, gotta run
I only get so many minutes
Don't wanna spend 'em all on the clock
In the time that we spent talkin'
How many kisses have I lost?
Time is love, gotta run
Love to hang longer
But I got someone who waits
Waits for me and right now
She's where I need to be
Time is love, gotta run
Gotta fly, fly
Before one more moment gets by
Time is love, gotta run
Love to hang longer
But I got someone who waits
Waits for me and right now
She's where I need to be
Time is love, gotta run
Love to hang longer
But I got someone who waits
Waits for me and right now
She's where I need to be
Time is love, gotta run
Time is love, gotta run

@sherrie warren Hi I want to take this opportunity to thank you for being the best supporter I could have ever asked for. You have support me,embraced me, and natured me through the good and bad times and never gave up on me. It all helps keep things in perspective, It all helps keep me grounded, humble, and appreciative of my career. It all helps me to always remember how blessed I am. No matter how big or small, all of your good deeds and positive vibes that are sent my way never go unnoticed. You're all my motivation, you are what drives me to grind each and every day because I don't want to let anyone of you down. In closing, I want to thank you again for being the best fan possible. No matter how far this music life might take me, I will never forget where I came from, and I will never forgot those who helped me get to where I am today. I'm never too far, I'm always on tweet, Instagram,and Facebook. I will continue to strive to make you proud, that's a promise. STAY BLESSED 🙏

Logan Stroganoff
Man I love Josh's music. I just got back from a 3 week vacation in Europe and good grief did it make me appreciate my sleepy southern home. Don't get me wrong I loved it but I discovered that southerners are still the kindest ppl on earth. As soon as I touched down in Carolina I put josh on and instantly felt like I was back home. Love all yall merry Christmas!!!
