Lyrics Hold Back Time - 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
