Lyrics In My Own Time (Live at the Rainbow, 1971) - Family

J. Whitney / R. Chapman

Lay down easy, stars in my eyes
Try not telling too many lies
Wake up feeling, not foolish or wise
And life goes with me, no matter what size
Now some seek Jesus, of flags they can wave
Won't touch nothing, unless it's been saved
But I say your neighbor deserves much more faith
And answer to yourself when you misbehave

You may think I'm wasting my time
Think what you think, you know I don't mind
But if I don't pick up what you choose to find

I'll be with you in my own time
I'll be with you in my own time

Mine is my freedom you take, I'll defy
Laugh till I'm tired, sing till I cry*
Cause life is a moment you pass with a sigh
Never comes back sure as yesterday's by

(REPEAT CHORUS)
