[Verse 1: Jennifer Nettles]
I was on a fast curve, lost my nerve on a dead end road
I was going nowhere faster than two legs can go
I never thought I'd slow down
I'm glad I finally know now

[Chorus: Jennifer Nettles, Jennifer Nettles, Kristen Hall & Kristian Bush]
That's life, if you open up your eyes
You'll find it gets better all the
Time, time, time
Time, time, time

[Verse 2: Jennifer Nettles]
I never really noticed when he moved in next to me
Sometimes it's amazing just how blind a girl can be
If I weren't busy running
I might have seen it coming

[Chorus: Jennifer Nettles, Jennifer Nettles, Kristen Hall & Kristian Bush]
But that's life, if you open up your eyes
You'll find it gets better all the
Time, time, time

[Bridge: Jennifer Nettles, Kristian Bush, Kristen Hall, Jennifer Nettles, Kristian Bush & Kristen Hall]
I'm running out of time, running out of time, I'm running away
Running out, running, I'm running out of ways of running away
Running out
I'm running out of time, running out of time, I'm running away
Running out, running, I'm running out of ways of running away
Running out
Got to slow down, if you don't, you're gonna break down
Got to slow down
I'm running out of time, running out of time, I'm running away
Running out, running, I'm running out of ways of running away
Got to slow down, if you don't, you're gonna break down
Got to slow down
(I'm) Running out of time, time, time
[Verse 3: Jennifer Nettles]
I was cooking dinner, heard a ring at my front door
I opened up and saw him, never felt like that before
The moment that our eyes met I knew I'd never forget
Sometimes the thing you most need
Is right there, but you can't see

[Chorus: Jennifer Nettles, Jennifer Nettles, Kristen Hall & Kristian Bush]
That's life, if you open up your eyes
You'll find it gets better all the
Time, time, time
Time, time, time
Time, time, time (Yeah)
