The Time Comes Lyrics

I wait for the day to break me
I look up to the sky
I look back on my life that graced me
When you were mine

The times comes… The time comes x 6
And then it goes, then it goes
Then it goes away

Don’t try to read the silence
Don’t try to live it down
Cause I've learned a thing or two
About patience
And I have found

Repeat chorus
Repeat first verse
Repeat chorus

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Personally for me this song is about someone you really loved but it didnt work out for whatever reason. So even tho your incredibly broken hearted about the situation, you just keep trying to live life patiently..eventually realizing that maybe things didnt work out for a reason... even tho it really hurts for the time being. I dunno, thats my 2 cents. I really love this song, it sounds a lot like something Michelle Featherstone would do.
