  1. Hold Back Time

Hold Back Time Lyrics - Orange Crate Art - Van Dyke Parks

We painted inside and out with just a gallon of joy 

We had the girl and the boy 

And love was never a toy 

Just like that old rusty ford we restored out in back 

 

It made that clickety-clack 

Our new old house by the track 

At her window was a touch of lavender lace 

I remember her face 

 

Too many rainbows to chase 

Right through the cracks of the paint 

Come the tracks of the train 

Scatter like diamonds of rain 

 

Down our old blacktop two lane 

Hold back time 

Don't talk about tomorrow 

Tell that old clock on the wall 

 

He'll just have to call it a day 

Hold back time 

When we're in each other's arms 

We're in each other's arms 

 

So hold back time 

With that old country hymn spinning round in her brain 

She kept her fancy for play 

More than for fortune and fame 

 

Now when we feel every wheel spinnin' steel on that track 

We shake the dust off the sack 

In our old house by the track 

Hold back time 

 

Don't talk about tomorrow 

Tell that old clock on the wall 

He'll just have to call it a day 

Hold back time 

 

When we're in each other's arms 

We're in each other's arms 

So hold back time 

Time
