" Time Waits for No One " é uma canção dos Rolling Stones, do álbum de 1974 It's Only Rock 'n Roll .
As músicas de sucesso do album foram a canção título, e a versão da música dos Temptations "Ain't Too Proud to Beg".
" Time Waits for No One " ficou escondida no final do Lado A do lp e nunca foi tocada em shows.
Gosto muito dessa letra e a música começa e termina com a batida de um relógio.
O vocal melancólico de Jagger e o maravilhoso solo de guitarra do exímio Mick Taylor fazem dela a minha preferida do disco e uma das melhores gravações dos Stones.
Infelizmente esse foi o último disco dos Stones que contou com a colaboração de Taylor ...
Time Waits For No One
(M. Jagger/K. Richards)
Yes, star crossed in pleasure the stream flows on by
Yes, as we're sated in leisure, we watch it fly
And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
Time can tear down a building or destroy a woman's face
Hours are like diamonds, don't let them waste
Time waits for no one, no favours has he
Time waits for no one, and he won't wait for me
Men, they build towers to their passing yes, to their fame everlasting
Here he comes chopping and reaping, hear him laugh at their cheating
And time waits for no man, and it won't wait for me
Yes, time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
Drink in your summer, gather your corn
The dreams of the night time will vanish by dawn
And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
No no no, not for me...
