about

ABOUT THIS TRACK: For a large portion of the world, there are two exceptions to the standard 24-hour day; a 23-hour day in late winter or early spring, and a 25-hour day in autumn. In the U.S. we learn to adjust the clocks at 2:00 a.m. In the autumn we essentially experience that time twice… once when the clock first strikes 2, and an hour later when it strikes 2 again. Meanwhile, in the spring, the hour between 2:00 a.m. and 3:00 a.m. disappears. So the song is a reflection on this time warping practice, and the fact that there is nothing more valuable than time.

lyrics

LYRICS
there must of course be a way
a little more time to stay
another lost hour gone away forever
savor the time we have
moments we can’t get back
thirty-six hundred seconds lost forever

tell me it’s too soon to say goodbye
so unfair to spring ahead and lose this precious time

2am again
it’s 2am again
wish we could turn back time and stay this way whenever
how is this possible
seems so illogical
maybe a miracle or the greatest magic trick ever

favorite holidays may never last
best day of the year is when we turn the clocks back

carry me away to the place called forget-me-not
gather up my life, take it all to the parking lot
carry me away to the place called forget-me-not
settle all my scores, then what’s left give it to the poor
