Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown Waiting for someone or something to show you the way Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain You are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older Shorter of breath and one day closer to death Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say Home, home again I like to be here when I can And when I come home cold and tired It's good to warm my bones beside the fire Far away across the field The tolling of the iron bell Calls the faithful to their knees To hear the softly spoken magic spells
I'm 65 now. During my teenage years my girlfriend passed and this was played at her funeral. I forever think of her when I hear this. She loved pink Floyd.
❤ sorry for your loss, but she had excellent taste in music. She must have been the cutest & coolest girl around! Love to you, & may she rest in peace. ♥️🙏
My favorite line is "No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun." Honestly it's kinda relatable and it opens the way into the solo so it's my favorite line or lyric or words ever. Kinda.
That line in particular makes me cry every time. Because lately, the nostalgia of my childhood has been hitting me really hard and I wish so desperately that I could go back. I am so grateful for what I have had, but wish I could have understood how precious time was in those moments. I love this band so much.
@@pierrethuillier4814 Hmmm I can't tell which is better, I'm taking this album as a whole. You can't take any piece from the album, cuse then it will lose all magic.

Time. The clock tics slow now. We can slow down the clock as our free time increases. Time;;;;;;;;;;;;;we only get so much of it on this earth do make the best of it, get out in the sunshine and enjoy the day with ample time to play ⏰
that road and songs were better then being in a building,, those hi-ways were designed with knowledge back then, most have GPS singnals, points, they understood so much more, now lands are lost to planners who do not even understand environments needs, once u fail to understand the environment can hurt our drivers, now when i heard dark side of the moon it hits so hard i missed the importance of those words, me
Спасибо, Роджерс, что, как и многие во всём мире, боритесь за неокрепшие души людей. Нас много и становится всё больше и больше. Добро победит! Мы должны в этом быть ВСЕ уверены. Эта победная установка должна быть у всех! ❤
Just started getting into PF a couple months ago and I've listened to every album they released. What an absolute trip. Every album is like one giant song. The way they flow into each other is so great. Definitely my favorite band, and for sure one of the best rock bands ever. If only the band stuck together and still performed, that would be freakin amazing.
I credit this song for turning my life around. I wasn't doing well in school and one night while "Inebriated", I actually listened to the lyrics, and it scared the hell out of me. I buckled down and changed the course I was on. Made a good life for myself.
"You are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today... And then one day you will find, ten year have got behind you... No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun" Perfect song
I had an older friend when I was early 20's he was mid 40's he loved this song and wanted me to understand the lyrics and I always think of him when I hear this song r.i.p Allan G. I understand now brother
There is no best song from DSOTM. The whole album is a song and it is the greatest ever! You can debate however, that the solo guitar of Time might be better than Comfortably Numb!
Hear I am now 71 years of age. At 21 in southern California I was working at Fender guitar. This was the song I'd play in my car as I'd drive home at 12:30 p.m. Yes, then one day I found fifty years have got behind me. Life is NOT LONG, it's a short song. Find Christ before it's all got behind you.
Starting the new year with this timeless song... Hits so hard... happy new year to whoever is reading this ❤️ Time sure does go by quick, so i hope we all get to make the most of it ❤️🙏🏽
I find it amazing how such a song was written by someone in his twenties. It's a wonderful song, both due to its lyrics and the music. Simply incredible and meaningful!
Time is one of my favorite songs by Pink Floyd.It's a masterpiece of progressive rock.The song starts with a haunting sound of clocks ticking and ringing,creating a sense of urgency and anxiety.The guitar solo by Gilmour is one of the best in rock history,full of passion and skill.The song ends with a reprise of Breath,reminding us to live in the present and enjoy the simple things.Time is a song that resonates with me deeply,and i always find something new to appreciate in it.
“No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun” is the most admirable things to be said it’s quiet literally explaining how you wasted and now you face the facts makes the solo sound like your crippling away
My dad loved this song, listening to it makes me feel like he and I were by the warm fire in the cool weather only hearing the fire crackle the last time I saw him for the accident. Something told me I would not see him again, but of course I ignored it and thought it was a ridiculous thought. Surely he’d live a lot longer and I’d have so much more time with him right? No, it’s been almost two years now and I still can’t handle the reality that he’s gone. He was everything to me. He knew me more than anyone else did because I was just like him. But sadly we all come short of realizing time is limited and not everyone has the same amount of it. Stop worrying about the past and stop worrying about the future, all that is in your control and what you should be focusing on is the present. Enjoy every lasting moment because it could be yours or someone you else’s last. I hope everyone one gets a chance to listen to this song, it’s one of the absolute best songs for the soul.
I'm so sorry for your loss. And thank you for your beautiful words. The little silver lining I think is that the ones we lost can live on when we hear a song such as Time... with the tick tock between verses a quiet reminder of our own limits. ❤
It’s weird, I had the same thoughts and feelings when my dad died. As if I knew he was going and that was the last time I would see him, but powerless. Odd phenomenon.
Hi. I. m 49 .Time is my absolute favorite from The Dark Side Of The Moon. I would also like those clocks to wake me up every morning:) Floyd forever. Much greetings from Slovenia
I'm the youngest of 12. I'm 54 now. My father was born in 1917. So I knew what I had by having a father old enough to be my grandfather. All of the wisdom and skills that my father passed on to me is priceless. That could not of happened if I had a father who would have been considered age appropriate to someone born in 1970.
I was listening to this as a teen 'ten years have got behind you' seemed crazy to me that that amount of time could slip away almost unnoticed! Well, nearly 40 years have slipped by since then..........
This IS one of the greatest solos ever, and so is the one in 'Comfortably numb', but how about 'On the turning away', or 'Pigs (three different ones)', they've got so many!
Me and my dad LOVED this song.❤ One great memory of it is when my dad had his machine shop in industrial area and late in the evening he rolled up the doors played the first 5 minutes of drum intro full blast and the way it echoed down the street was amazing! We listened and drummed on the table each time he replayed it. He passed in 2014 from lung cancer. Great memories...miss you dad. ❤
Such a sweet memory thank you for sharing!! My dad works in a machine shop and loves Pink Floyd also, sorry about your dad ❤ I'll be so devastated when my parents go. I wish we could keep them forever ❤
@@dwaynehoward3569 thanks for sharing that, and sorry about your dad 😔 at least we do in fact get to keep our memories, you were lucky to have your dad
This song, specially this song turn my whole life into this band... I remember the exact moment when i heard it and went totally blown away, almost like i was leaving my own body.
I was 14 and smoking weed for the first time ever. Some random kid that I had just met at the beach was passing me the pipe and asked if I had ever heard Time by Pink Floyd, I was really into punk rock at the time and hadn’t yet developed the taste for this style of music. When I told him no, he pulled his iPod and headphones out and stuck both the buds in my ears and said close your eyes real quick, and I heard the ticking start.. absolutely melted my mind. I spent the rest of my vacation, almost another week, borrowing this kids iPod to play this album. If you’re out there Brian, thanks for tuning me in, man.
I was 11 when this came out. I dug it as a song, BUT ever since the 1980s, it made MORE and MORE sense. I am NOW shorter of breath, and one day closer to death. My mother died at 50 in 1989, HER mother died at 49 in 1965. I made it (so far) to be 62, Born in '62..But Yeah. EVERY YEAR is getting SHORTER. I guess I'll seem them on the DARK SIDE of the MOON!
I thank him for his service: Fun Fact: The U.S. Air Force is the WORLD'S largest air force, The WORLD'S next largest air force: The U.S. Navy!! If shit needs blown up in a hurry, from the sea OR the air..Navy's got the job done already!
Joined the Navy with little self-respect. Ran with a tough crowd. Came home a man and made something of myself. The Navy set the path to success for me.
Lyrics: Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day, you fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way. Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown, waiting for someone or something to show you the way. Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain. And you are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today. And then one day you find - ten years have got behind you, no one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun. So you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it’s sinking, racing around to come up behind you again. The sun is the same in a relative way, but you’e older, shorter of breath, and one day closer to death. Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find time. Plans that either come to naught, or half a page of scribbled lines. Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way. The time is gone, the song is over, thought I’d something more to say. (Breathe Reprise) Home, home again. I like to be here when I can. And when I come home, cold and tired, it’s good to warm my bones beside the fire. Far away, across the field, the tolling of the iron bell, calls the faithful to their knees - to hear the softly spoken magic spells.
I would so like to be hearing this for the first time again, with the shock of those alarms going off unexpectedly. But now I'm 60 and sitting at home, convalescing from my first (and hopefully only) heart attack, frittering away the hours in an offhand way listening to "Time". Thanks for the music Pink Floyd (with a special shout out to Alan Parsons and Lesley Duncan)
La mejor banda de rock de la historia. Cuando otras grandes bandas cantaban al amor y al desamor con letras cursis y hippies las letras de Pink Floyd eran profundas. Como ejemplo esta misma canción sobre lo rápido que nos pasa la vida y cómo la desperdiciamos. Fabulosos Pink Floyd
The target audience for this song keeps getting younger and younger. Songs about getting older are hitting hard for people in their early-to-mid 20s in the current climate, in which the youth aren't endowed with the same fortunes and hopes as the older generation. A lot of today's 25-year olds are living with their parents, yet to find love and acceptance and struggling to make ends meet so they can save up to move out of their homes. Dear commenter, you are incredibly lucky to have grown up in an era which has allowed you to experience the amenities of adulthood head-on. In that regard you made the start just fine. I, a young man from Generation Z, didn't know how badly I needed to hear this until yesterday, when I listened to the album start to finish.
This song is a masterpiece that will instantly bring back everything you heard about this even if you haven't heard it for hundreds of years, and the lyrics are even more deeply rooted in your bones, reflecting harsh reality.
Song got me watering in my eyes as my dad loves Pink Floyd and i lost him a few years ago, never thought how much this band was probably a part of his youth as he was early twenties listening to this, I miss him wandering around the house singing abba pet shop boys or Pink Floyd
PINK FLOYD w tamtych latach odleciał totalnie od ścisłej czołówki największych zespołów. Twórczość tej grupy była i jest nie osiągalna dla innych. Utwory P.F. po długich dekadach, nie starzeją się i ciągle zachwycają nowe pokolenia. Zespół wszechczasów ❤PINK FLOYD❤
No entiendo cómo puede haber personas que le dan un "no me gusta" a está canción con tan profunda letra, en realidad es hermosa. Pink Floyd, de mis bandas favoritas, la amo.🤘😍
At 16, this song makes me remember that my life is, in fact, finite, and I'm spending them in a way I'm unhappy with. This song is also a semi-inspiration, and it gets me to do the things i want, such as learning this song on guitar
Do yourself a favor and spend time with old men. Volunteer at an old folks home. You want to know what life is like, just talk to those people. Pink Floyd nailed the flavor of it, but the flavor is not the taste.
When this record came out I was 19. Mesmerized more by the music than the lyrics, now in my 70s I see they were very prophetic. I’ve been lucky, missed very few starting guns. But you only get so many chances so be ready. Good luck on the guitar.
These lyrics are so amazing. PF was and still are so far ahead of their time. It’s been 50 years and they are still ahead of today’s music. PF were the greatest musicians of all time
never growing old ... an eternal song ... years, decades, centuries pass, and if this world does not die in madness or a nuclear war, which basically is the same, then this song will remain forever like the name of the collective who created it. ..
I've been listening to this song since I was 13-ish years old. Now I'm 35. The song grows more in its meaning the older I am. Unfortunately, when you're young you don't really appreciate the "missed the starting gun" part of the song until it actually happens to you.
I can remember riding with my step father and this being played on Z93 and 96 rock in Atlanta. They were the best band alive imo. I still feel the same way. Thanks Eric for introducing me to music that was before my time... I'll show it to my kids you never got a chance to meet. Until next time. Rip.
Я до сих пор не могу понять как можно так слаженно играть, так должно было быть, так и произошло, мир услышал и слушает до сих пор шедевр в лице Pink Floyd 👍👌
But for some reason, this song is completely uninteresting melodically, harmonically, and performively. Boring pretentious nonsense, stuffed with sound engineering tricks
Eternals was aight but I’m so glad they put this song in there. This has always been one of the most influential songs in my life. It was awesome hearing it through the theatres sound system.
i dint expect much from that movie but when i head that sound at the beginning i instantly recognized the song but i dont like that they had to have the gay dude, as they say GET 'EM UP AGAINST THE WALL
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say
Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
And when I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells
Thanks Alicia Martin for posting the lyrics of this *awesome* song ! Greetings from a brasilian friend ! 🇧🇷 👍🏼 😉
A little punctuation would be nice
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way, the time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say.
I know the lyrics. Amazing song, right?
I thought it was “make up adulting” not “make up a dull day” lol
A song about time and death and how nothing is permanent ended up becoming a track that will never die or fade away. This thing is eternal
It most definitely will be immortal
"Never." "Eternal." Ha ha ha...
@@georgegherkin3426 words.
Been listening to this for 50 years... "You run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking..." Even more true every day.
The song is about procrastination
I'm 65 now. During my teenage years my girlfriend passed and this was played at her funeral. I forever think of her when I hear this. She loved pink Floyd.
That’s very sad bro, so sorry for your loss regardless of how many years ago it was
Sorry for your lose 😢
Aww dude I feel for you. Sorry for your loss
So sorry
❤ sorry for your loss, but she had excellent taste in music. She must have been the cutest & coolest girl around! Love to you, & may she rest in peace. ♥️🙏
DEAR YOUNG LISTENER, This song will become more powerfull the older you get
Absolutely!
Very true
I should have paid more attention to it in my youth , i’ve def missed the starting gun and have arthritis in my hands now 😮
True that!
Yes yes yes!!!!!
"The sun is the same in a relative way but your older. Shorter of breath and one day closer to death" one of my favorite lines ever
Yea brother me too
My favorite line is "No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun." Honestly it's kinda relatable and it opens the way into the solo so it's my favorite line or lyric or words ever. Kinda.
@@DarthUnivers Em casa novamente ,é bom aquecer meus ossos e distante ouço sinos mágicos
Mine too
That line in particular makes me cry every time. Because lately, the nostalgia of my childhood has been hitting me really hard and I wish so desperately that I could go back. I am so grateful for what I have had, but wish I could have understood how precious time was in those moments. I love this band so much.
Truly one of the greatest songs in rock history.
Maybe
@@miguelsebastianorcconburgo3258 nah, it's for sure

I'll say personaly, but great gig in the sky is more marvelous than Time, even he is beautiful

Nick's favorite song from DSOTM as well
The best song on the album by far, and like to think it is because of this thing you mentioned
They had to have a suspicion while creating this how world changing it would be. That sort of magic ain't conjured every day.
Make it a Floydian Day.!
The guitar crying in the background while you realize that the days are getting shorter each day....
Timeless masterpiece

There is no best song from DSOTM. The whole album is a song and it is the greatest ever! You can debate however, that the solo guitar of Time might be better than Comfortably Numb!

“No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun” is the most admirable things to be said it’s quiet literally explaining how you wasted and now you face the facts makes the solo sound like your crippling away
Rock n Roll doesn't get much better than that.
My dad loved this song, listening to it makes me feel like he and I were by the warm fire in the cool weather only hearing the fire crackle the last time I saw him for the accident. Something told me I would not see him again, but of course I ignored it and thought it was a ridiculous thought. Surely he’d live a lot longer and I’d have so much more time with him right? No, it’s been almost two years now and I still can’t handle the reality that he’s gone. He was everything to me. He knew me more than anyone else did because I was just like him. But sadly we all come short of realizing time is limited and not everyone has the same amount of it. Stop worrying about the past and stop worrying about the future, all that is in your control and what you should be focusing on is the present. Enjoy every lasting moment because it could be yours or someone you else’s last. I hope everyone one gets a chance to listen to this song, it’s one of the absolute best songs for the soul.
I'm so sorry for your loss. And thank you for your beautiful words. The little silver lining I think is that the ones we lost can live on when we hear a song such as Time... with the tick tock between verses a quiet reminder of our own limits. ❤
It’s weird, I had the same thoughts and feelings when my dad died. As if I knew he was going and that was the last time I would see him, but powerless. Odd phenomenon.
he's living through you. make him proud.
God bless you brother ❤❤
You are great son

Hi. I. m 49 .Time is my absolute favorite from The Dark Side Of The Moon. I would also like those clocks to wake me up every morning:)
Floyd forever. Much greetings from Slovenia
@@nobleeagle7661 Um I heard it in 1974 and I was only 12, The O.P. would have been 18 when she heard it, likely also in 1974!
Ditto for me
“No one told you when to run. You missed the starting gun” cosmic solo. ❤😢
Exactly
These lines describe myself...

Dark Side of the Moon will be played at my funeral in its entirety . Bless you all !!
Not too soon, i hope.
Going for the "Gunner's dream" from the final cut.....but I respect your choice o7
This will also be one of my favorites played along with Boston, Bad Company and some Bob Seger played at mine also.
Till then you have TIME.
Make the most of it.
Ditto 👍
My mother's favorite album. Played it every day beginning to end until she passed away at 90. She was a brilliant woman.

Did you by chance make that your mom's favorite? Remarkable. Sounds like ya had excellent parenting. Glad ya had all that TIME with her.

I’m 70 years young me and my 12 year old daughter listen to this and endless river
A daughter at 58 - congratulations, Charlie Chapplin would be proud of you.
Ooooo, Endless River is such an underrated album.
Yeah the emdless river that all of us will going through
I’ll be 60 in September, I’ve got a 17 month old daughter. I’ve often wondered what it’s gonna be like later on
I'm the youngest of 12. I'm 54 now. My father was born in 1917. So I knew what I had by having a father old enough to be my grandfather. All of the wisdom and skills that my father passed on to me is priceless. That could not of happened if I had a father who would have been considered age appropriate to someone born in 1970.
Who is here for eternity?
I love the transition from the melody of time back to the melody of Breathe in the Air.
What a great moment !! Feels so natural.
Same
I have reached such point in my life that this song is so very relevant... Regardless of your current age, please take note ! ! !
I was listening to this as a teen 'ten years have got behind you' seemed crazy to me that that amount of time could slip away almost unnoticed!
Well, nearly 40 years have slipped by since then..........
Absolutely ..... 40 years have passed 😢
Yes .... I think we take life for granted.. then 40 years have gone behind you 😢 keep moving!!!!!
If ur listening to this in 2024 u got great taste in music
gotta celebrate and cherish this album

This is perhaps the greatest solo of all time. People usually say it's "Comfortably Numb" but for new this one is way above everything else.
This IS one of the greatest solos ever, and so is the one in 'Comfortably numb', but how about 'On the turning away', or 'Pigs (three different ones)', they've got so many!
This one is beyond great, but mate, have you heard all the versions of the Solo from CN?
@@domination98mta51 Time solo in the Gdansk version is so great
@@lordraj365 have to agree lol❤
What about the solo in Alexander The Great by Iron Maiden? So underrated
Turned 61 today . This is my treat for the day ! I go to RedRocks in Colorado every year to hear Britfloyd .
Great song. Perfect harmony and lyrics with a deep philosophical and existential transcendence.
Nobody makes music as good as this anymore
😢
Wokeness
listen to kanye he makes the music with meaning to rival this
@@raspisnothere1606 ??? Eminem better
Me and my dad LOVED this song.❤ One great memory of it is when my dad had his machine shop in industrial area and late in the evening he rolled up the doors played the first 5 minutes of drum intro full blast and the way it echoed down the street was amazing! We listened and drummed on the table each time he replayed it. He passed in 2014 from lung cancer. Great memories...miss you dad. ❤
Such a sweet memory thank you for sharing!! My dad works in a machine shop and loves Pink Floyd also, sorry about your dad ❤ I'll be so devastated when my parents go. I wish we could keep them forever ❤
Death causes wounds that never truly heal,Love creates memories that Time will never steal. Lost my Dad a long time ago.
@@dwaynehoward3569 thanks for sharing that, and sorry about your dad 😔 at least we do in fact get to keep our memories, you were lucky to have your dad
This song has TERRIFYING lyrics, yet that's what makes this song so powerful.
“I’m on the top of the building”
I hereby declare this to be my all time favorite song. It's not only beautifully composed, but it speaks to me on a very deep, spiritual level.
This song, specially this song turn my whole life into this band... I remember the exact moment when i heard it and went totally blown away, almost like i was leaving my own body.
the exact same experience
I was 14 and smoking weed for the first time ever. Some random kid that I had just met at the beach was passing me the pipe and asked if I had ever heard Time by Pink Floyd, I was really into punk rock at the time and hadn’t yet developed the taste for this style of music. When I told him no, he pulled his iPod and headphones out and stuck both the buds in my ears and said close your eyes real quick, and I heard the ticking start.. absolutely melted my mind. I spent the rest of my vacation, almost another week, borrowing this kids iPod to play this album.
If you’re out there Brian, thanks for tuning me in, man.
I fell in love with her when my rabbit got sick, unfortunately he is no longer here, if he was just a rabbit, just like a simple epic song
The older u get, the more mesmerizing and euphonic this album becomes!!
I was captured by this album at 17 and now at 36 can fully agree!
uh....what....?
the older i get the more i suspect pf had help
I was 11 when this came out. I dug it as a song, BUT ever since the 1980s, it made MORE and MORE sense. I am NOW shorter of breath, and one day closer to death. My mother died at 50 in 1989, HER mother died at 49 in 1965. I made it (so far) to be 62, Born in '62..But Yeah. EVERY YEAR is getting SHORTER. I guess I'll seem them on the DARK SIDE of the MOON!
In my humble opinion this is the best album of all time
❤❤❤❤❤❤реально..... Так. И. Есть.......😮
Totalmente de acuerdo
No one compares this.
Just a few things brother
My favorite song by Pink Floyd. This is a "timeless" song that can be listened to anytime, anywhere!!
I agree completely 👍
Una sola palabra que define esta obra maestra :ATEMPORAL.
Estoy de acuerdo. Para mí, pink floyd es lo máximo 🌟⭐🌈
Es increíble como después de varias décadas aún se escucha actual.

Listened to this song the day my son swore into the Navy. His favorite song. Cried all day. I now love this song.
I thank him for his service: Fun Fact: The U.S. Air Force is the WORLD'S largest air force, The WORLD'S next largest air force: The U.S. Navy!! If shit needs blown up in a hurry, from the sea OR the air..Navy's got the job done already!
Joined the Navy with little self-respect. Ran with a tough crowd. Came home a man and made something of myself. The Navy set the path to success for me.

Lyrics:
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day,
you fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown,
waiting for someone or something to show you the way.
Tired of lying in the sunshine,
staying home to watch the rain.
And you are young and life is long,
and there is time to kill today.
And then one day you find -
ten years have got behind you,
no one told you when to run,
you missed the starting gun.
So you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it’s sinking,
racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you’e older,
shorter of breath, and one day closer to death.
Every year is getting shorter,
never seem to find time.
Plans that either come to naught,
or half a page of scribbled lines.
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.
The time is gone,
the song is over,
thought I’d something more to say.
(Breathe Reprise)
Home,
home again.
I like to be here when I can.
And when I come home,
cold and tired,
it’s good to warm my bones beside the fire.
Far away, across the field,
the tolling of the iron bell,
calls the faithful to their knees -
to hear the softly spoken magic spells.
Good Show Mate !
Up
I remember buying the album as a kid.
I would so like to be hearing this for the first time again, with the shock of those alarms going off unexpectedly.
But now I'm 60 and sitting at home, convalescing from my first (and hopefully only) heart attack, frittering away the hours in an offhand way listening to "Time".
Thanks for the music Pink Floyd (with a special shout out to Alan Parsons and Lesley Duncan)
I'm wishing better days ahead for you, Jim 🙂
Keep strong man, dont give up
Ты молодец что держишься привет из России так держать.
Wishing you a fast and great recovery to keep listening to this masterpiece of a band. All the best!
How are you holding up, Jim?
A song that has stood the test of time
I see what you did there.
And will continue to do so...the older I get the more relevant it becomes
Gets weirder when you realize they’ll be playing this in 10,000 years if not longer
One of the greatest rock songs ever written.
My dad had this at his funeral when his coffin was brought into the church. 3 years gone, I miss you eternally with my whole heart and soul ♥️
Hugs ❤
I was 23 when this album came out. Still listening 50 years later...
glad you're still here enjoying this masterpiece! im 24 but have been listening my entire life and will continue to until the day i die
@@oxydivaproof or it won’t happen
Same here.
I turned 18 in October and I'm glad my dad taught me good music.
Dope
La mejor banda de rock de la historia. Cuando otras grandes bandas cantaban al amor y al desamor con letras cursis y hippies las letras de Pink Floyd eran profundas. Como ejemplo esta misma canción sobre lo rápido que nos pasa la vida y cómo la desperdiciamos. Fabulosos Pink Floyd
Miguel, definitely agree.
PINK FLOYD IS another level.
It's just unearthly music...
Это точно.Мне 67 а я все ещё хочу и могу но свою Супругу.Мусью.
They were truly ahead of their time!!
First heard this song as a little kid cause my dad loved classic rock. Now I'm graduating, and I finally understand this song.
Sometimes it takes a minute but you will get it. Good on you mate. Now share what you know.
Well done, in comparison I have done nothing in particular for like 20 years. I'll pay for this.
Good moment bro !
My dad introduced Pink Floyd to me and I love this song but I’m still a kid
나를 구렁텅이에서 깨어나게 해준 노래..... 이곡을 들은후 참 많은 생각을했고 움직였다
Massa, viva❤❤❤
Its songs like this that made me move to Jamaica and see what happens instead of being sure in life which never happens for most people
Gilmour litteraly plays 2 notes in this solo, and i've already got goosebumps!!!
Now at 55 this song has so much more meaning. Absoultley powerful! How a bunch of young guys could feel this blows my mind.
The target audience for this song keeps getting younger and younger. Songs about getting older are hitting hard for people in their early-to-mid 20s in the current climate, in which the youth aren't endowed with the same fortunes and hopes as the older generation. A lot of today's 25-year olds are living with their parents, yet to find love and acceptance and struggling to make ends meet so they can save up to move out of their homes.
Dear commenter, you are incredibly lucky to have grown up in an era which has allowed you to experience the amenities of adulthood head-on. In that regard you made the start just fine.
I, a young man from Generation Z, didn't know how badly I needed to hear this until yesterday, when I listened to the album start to finish.
One of the best songs ever
This song is a masterpiece that will instantly bring back everything you heard about this even if you haven't heard it for hundreds of years, and the lyrics are even more deeply rooted in your bones, reflecting harsh reality.
Song got me watering in my eyes as my dad loves Pink Floyd and i lost him a few years ago, never thought how much this band was probably a part of his youth as he was early twenties listening to this, I miss him wandering around the house singing abba pet shop boys or Pink Floyd
I've been watching "first time reactions " to floyd lately. its been fun watching others have their minds blown...
This song puts a smile to my face and a tear to my eye.
PINK FLOYD w tamtych latach odleciał totalnie od ścisłej czołówki największych zespołów. Twórczość tej grupy była i jest nie osiągalna dla innych. Utwory P.F. po długich dekadach, nie starzeją się i ciągle zachwycają nowe pokolenia. Zespół wszechczasów
❤PINK FLOYD❤
Com certeza ❤
No entiendo cómo puede haber personas que le dan un "no me gusta" a está canción con tan profunda letra, en realidad es hermosa. Pink Floyd, de mis bandas favoritas, la amo.🤘😍
True that man
Se llama... GUSTO, DEMOCRACIA O LIBRE ALBEDRÍO., (( No todo el mundo escucha, solo oyen, NO ESCUCHAN. ))
Tal vez por aie es gente inculta q no sabe de la buena música de lo profundo de la letra Pink floy no es para cualquier persona
Profundo,,,,😢

Pink Floyd one of the greatest rock bands of all time and this is one of their greatest songs!
At 16, this song makes me remember that my life is, in fact, finite, and I'm spending them in a way I'm unhappy with. This song is also a semi-inspiration, and it gets me to do the things i want, such as learning this song on guitar
Do yourself a favor and spend time with old men. Volunteer at an old folks home. You want to know what life is like, just talk to those people. Pink Floyd nailed the flavor of it, but the flavor is not the taste.
Only do what makes you and others around you happy, the time does indeed go too quickly.
Best give up kid. You're fucked. We all are
When this record came out I was 19. Mesmerized more by the music than the lyrics, now in my 70s I see they were very prophetic. I’ve been lucky, missed very few starting guns. But you only get so many chances so be ready. Good luck on the guitar.
At 16 life isnt short, but at my age the time left is.
Live it with a clear head and the ability to remember every adventure you have.
These lyrics are so amazing. PF was and still are so far ahead of their time. It’s been 50 years and they are still ahead of today’s music. PF were the greatest musicians of all time
never growing old ... an eternal song ... years, decades, centuries pass, and if this world does not die in madness or a nuclear war, which basically is the same, then this song will remain forever like the name of the collective who created it. ..
Imagine listening to this, 1000 years later from now. Would still be amazing

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. This album is classic. Forever. From a time albums were much more important than singles.
My papa’s favourite song. He’s gone forever, but the song is here and will always remind me of him. I love you papa ♥️
50 Years ago today.. Simply Perfection
True that, but it was a year in the making and without Alan Parsons magical engineering.....i wonder ?
I've been listening to this song since I was 13-ish years old. Now I'm 35. The song grows more in its meaning the older I am. Unfortunately, when you're young you don't really appreciate the "missed the starting gun" part of the song until it actually happens to you.
Check back in your 50's bub
You are a pussey that’s why 😂😂
True shit
You are absolutely correct 😢
Me too. I'm 63...
I smoked a joint and listened to this song I just wanna say pink Floyd thank you for boosting my high to a astronomical level
I can remember riding with my step father and this being played on Z93 and 96 rock in Atlanta. They were the best band alive imo. I still feel the same way. Thanks Eric for introducing me to music that was before my time... I'll show it to my kids you never got a chance to meet. Until next time. Rip.
Я до сих пор не могу понять как можно так слаженно играть, так должно было быть, так и произошло, мир услышал и слушает до сих пор шедевр в лице Pink Floyd 👍👌
