[Verse 1] I keep a clock on my phone and one on the wall As if the extra one gives me more I count the years like I’m running short Of something I can’t even name Everyone around me building lists Of everything that hasn’t happened yet We’re all so busy tracking the minutes We forgot who invented the minutes
[Pre-Chorus] Someone drew a line in the sky Called it noon and we all agreed Built our worth around the calendar And forgot that we were holding the key
[Chorus] Sometimes all the time is right now The hand you held when someone was breaking Not the milestones or the deadlines or the clock The real measure has no numbers It lives in whoever you showed up for Sometimes all the time, it was never a clock
[Verse 2] No one I’ve loved remembered my resume No one I’ve hurt forgot the words I said Legacy isn’t filed in a planner It’s written on people instead The hours I spent chasing some version of ready The hours I gave, those are the ones that stayed
[Pre-Chorus] We circled hours like they meant something Gave names to light and dark Turned days into a measurement And lost sight of who we are
[Chorus] Sometimes all the time is right now The hand you held when someone was breaking Not the milestones or the deadlines or the clock The real measure has no numbers It lives in whoever you showed up for Sometimes all the time, it was never a clock
[Bridge] Let the clock run Let the calendar fill The real ledger is written In the people who still Think of you when they’re lost When they need to feel found
[Chorus] Sometimes all the time is right now In the quiet way you stayed Not the future or the finish line Or the plans we never made There’s a truth that doesn’t count itself It’s written in the hearts you hold Sometimes all the time was never time It was love we didn’t schedule
[Final Chorus - key lift, softer, resolved] Sometimes all the time is right now All the hands that kept from breaking Not the milestones or the deadlines Or the clocks we kept on chasing There’s a measure without numbers In every heart you opened wide Sometimes all the time was never time It was love that stayed behind
[Outro - gentle, almost a whisper] Not how much time you had How much time you gave
