Lyrics

While There’s Still Time

I wanna be charmin’ for my darlin’
For I am his sweet Clementine
So as the years pass by, that twinkle in his eye
Will get brighter when his eyes meet mine.

I’m makin’ hippie tostadas this Saturday night,
I’ll show you, my sweetheart, just how it’s done right,
With sparklin’ peach wine, we’ll have us a good time
Waltzin’ in the kitchen by candlelight.

Chorus:
While there’s still time, while there’s still time
Hold me close, darlin’, and show me you’re mine
While there’s still time.

I rose up early this mornin’ and wrote you this song
‘Twas on the tip of my heart and it didn’t take long
So when I’m not next to you, when my life is through,
You’ll listen and remember my love for you.

I wanna be charmin’ for my darling
For I am his sweet Clementine
I’m not his dreadful sorrow, I’m here today and tomorrow,
I’ll always be his Valentine.

Chorus:
While there’s still time, while there’s still time,
Stay with me, darlin’ and show me you’re mine
While there’e still time.


I wanna be charmin’ for my darlin’
For I am his sweet Clementine
So as the years pass by, that twinkle in his eye
Will get brighter, and brighter, and brighter, and brighter,
Will get brighter when his soul meets mine.
