Praying For Time Lyrics:

These are the days of the open hand, they will not be the last
Look around now
These are the days of the beggars and the choosers
This is the year of the hungry man, whose place is in the past
Hand in hand with ignorance and legitimate excuses

The rich declare themselves poor, and most of us are not sure
If we have too much, but we'll take our chances
'Cause god's stopped keeping score
I guess somewhere along the way he must have let us all out to play
Turned his back, and all god's children crept out the back door

And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much, much too late
Well maybe we should all be praying for time

These are the days of the empty hand, oh you hold on to what you can
And charity is a coat you wear twice a year
This is the year of the guilty man, your television takes a stand
And you find that what was over there is over here

So you scream from behind your door
Say "What's mine is mine and not yours"
I may have too much but i'll take my chances
'Cause god's stopped keeping score
And you cling to the things they sold you
Did you cover your eyes when they told you
That he can't come back
'Cause he has no children to come back for

It's hard to love, there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
So maybe we should all be praying for time

Ahead of his time! The lyrics should be shared with the world's population so we can see what we've become!

This amazing song sends shivers down my spine and brings the tears in my eyes each time I listen to it. This is the ugly truth about this world and George Michael was a wonderful soul. RIP ❤

Is this the greatest song John Lennon never wrote?
Genius in beautiful simplicity.

It's 2022 & 'Praying for Time' and George's other gem 'Hand to Mouth' are hauntingly relevant now more than ever.
The world lost a truly great lyricist, musician & performer when he died.
So glad we have his legacy to reminisce & enjoy all these years later...may he RIP
