<br>SPEEDING TIME<br>by Gerry Goffin &amp; Carole King<br><br>Decades pass in just one year<br>And your illusions disappear<br>And you fear the speeding time<br><br>You find a dream that you embrance<br>Look the other way and it`s a race<br>Trying to keep pace with the speeding time<br><br>Don`t seee no more dancin` on the street<br>And it`s not easy to laugh at your defeat<br><br>But hang in-hold on<br>There will be relief<br>Y`gotta try, gotta try to keep your love alive<br>In this speeding time<br><br>Get your feet on solid ground<br>It`s a nightmare you have found<br>The howling sound of speeding time<br>Y`hear the cries behind stone walls<br>Decipher echoes down the halls<br>But don`t you fall in the speeding time<br><br>Drifting back is no way to begin<br>Y`gotta try to find the strength within<br><br>And hang in-hold on<br>There will be relief<br>Y`gotta try, gotta try to keep your love alive<br>In this speeding time<br><br>You never listened when the prophet said<br>&quot;Prepare yourself for times that lie ahead&quot;<br>Now that you know they didn`t speak a lie<br>There`s nothing for you to do except to try<br><br>And hang in-hold on<br>Oh, hang in-hold on<br>There will be relief<br>Y`gotta try, gotta try to keep your love alive<br>In this speeding time
