JMP and MGG went away on a trip
across the land and over the water
they greeted future sons and daughters
and the clouds were like smoke from a train
and the trees said come back again
with arms open wide to the sky
and the gulls flew in circles above
the fresh new green of their love
and for a while they forgot how to cry
time is how you spend your love
time is how you spend your love
and now they live in a box that’s on top of another box
that’s on top of the box that’s on the bottom
and the dishes pile up in the sink
they don’t have time to think
that dreams are soon forgotten
time is how you spend your love
time is how you spend your love
time – time is how you spend your love
but the clouds were like smoke from a train
and the trees said come back again
with arms spreading wide to the sky
and the gulls flew in circles above
the fresh new green of their love
and for a while they forgot how to cry
time is how you spend your love
time is how you spend your love
time - time is how you spend your love
