Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say
Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
When I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away, across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spell
Fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again

Is this the highest-rated work in the RP pantheon? Is there a way to tell? Currently (2024.09.08), a 9.1 with 2983 "10" votes!
THIS WILL ALWAYS REMIND ME of how Mike C and I sat as if melted into the seats of my mean green '70 Cutlass 'S' Coupe for the full duration of not once but twice through CRANKED on my AudioVox 8-track through Jensen Tri-Axials of this masterpiece album, parked for a couple hours at least, at the turnaround way out along View High Road, as we smoked two full fatties and savored quite a few tasty German brews, blessed and blissed into Heaven, well above Standard Orbit, one magical misty autumn day back in 1979...

It is too easy to like songs such as this. , but yeah, 10
The best classic rock guitar solo of all time.
Great documentary right now on Netflix (maybe Amazon Prime?) on the making of this album, definitely worth seeing.
Yikes.
What...what is it?
Is it coming?
Welcome it or hide?
Dialogue with it or silence.

Looking for the "11" button

1974. My High School teacher says we are going to analyse a poem and hands out copies to everyone. It's 'Time'. The room full of 13 year olds hadn't heard of it (including me). When seen as verse it was powerful. Then he pulled out the portable turntable (it was 1974) and carefully dropped the needle onto the right track. I was hooked right then. He was a great teacher (plus we did the same for 'Money' a few weeks later). Thank you Mr Thomas.

I’m alate comer in life to like/love PF but never too late.

I've probably heard this song 10,000 times in my life, thanks to parents and uncles that were big music heads, and it still blows my mind. Love it. Never tire of it.
timeless - perfect

How could this be even more perfect? If it segued into “Great Gig In The Sky”. Still a “10” for me though…

I seriously want to go higher than 10 in my rating!!!! Some songs are perfect.
Epic, powerful and legendary...and oh so relevant (still now)
Still a great track on a very great album for sure a 10
If this isn't a "10", what the Hell is?.......
many years ago, so many years, my mother got 2 albums of music from a very close friend. She was divorced at that time from my father, and my world was so dark. I was so young I still wasn't able to read, but I remember the covers like it was yesterday...Dark side of the moon, and Tea for the Tillerman
Suddenly the world became so plain, so pure. Hearing my mother singing was heaven, and then this woman. She was the womankind, and still is.
It is the first music I can ever remember about, and nothing can compare to it. It is condensed life.
RIP Mother, I love you

Nothing to compare it to. This is a standard
probably the greatest song on the greatest album ever produced. the first time i ever heard this album was in HS in 1991. first time i ever got stoned too. it was an experience i'll never forget. i'd never been moved by an album like this before. was sure it was the weed. listened to it again the next day and it was even more moving. it's been my favorite album ever since. i never get tired of it and it's themes become all the more meaningful as i age.
The opening is one of the best drum solos ever.
These go to eleven
Timeless... (Sorry couldn't resist.) Clearly a 10.

You were a very lucky boy. In the right kind of class. 1974. I'm 17, in my last year at high school. Half of my class (the ones who were switched on to proper music) knew about Pink Floyd. Indeed, we would rush home from school to stick LPs like this one on the clanky old turntable, shove the massive earphones on and escape the sunny dreariness of being a teenager in the sunny apartheid state of South Africa. Our teachers would not have dreamed of subverting THE SYSTEM by even mentioning the Floyd in front of the kids, let alone distributing the rebellious and Godless lyrics around the class. Unthinkable. Albums were regularly banned by the Censorship Board back in those days but we always had a friend whose parents would bring them in from the UK after a holiday. Then we would share them around and record them on a cassette. It was when an English guy arrived at our school and invited me to his house to listen to his FULL Pink Floyd collection on his mom's then-state-of-the-art B&O stereo that a whole new world opened up for me. My head nearly exploded when he put on Meddle that giddy-making afternoon. Weird times. Weirdly good times. A huge thank you to RP for making it so much easier to enjoy the music of my youth. And the music of today's "youth" (ie anybody younger than me!), a lot of it very cool. Love to y'all from the Rainbow Nation. Siyabonga (thank you)

Which version is “40 years have left behind you no one told you when to run,you missed the starting gun” On my discs it’s always been 10 years. But enough of that DSOTM has always been and will continue to be the defining PF album such an influence on millions of people all around the world including the street singer in Granada. PF forever
Blimey. my old AR Caambridge A60 Amp and Heybrook HB2's have come to life

This totally transports me back to my room in this crappy old house we used to live in, my room , 8 track player speakers buzzing on my little plastic Sears & Roebuck player.
Great segue from the peacefully mesmerizing Eric Saie piece.

Even after hearing this a thousand times (or more?) I STILL get chicken skin when Nick's drums start crashing. To me....this IS the best song ever. And for Nick's work w/ Pink Floyd, one of his best performances. 11x11^11!!

This was my second album at the age of 13. I still remember to this day getting the album home and carefully taking the LP out of the cover (in addition to the posters), placing it on the turnable side 1 up and gently lowering the needle onto the LP.............mind blowing, my Mother didn't see me for days :) Don't make them like this anymore (or maybe it's an age thing and they do :) ).
When times were worry free
Nothing like a little Pink Floyd in the afternoon.
New headphones. First song I listened to. Still as good as the first time I heard it
I was a fresh faced undergrad in the autumn term of 1973, and every evening my house tutor, a postgrad who inhabited the room next to mine, would return and put this album on his turntable and crank his amp to max. Thank God he had such good taste. This is encoded into my musical DNA.

Interesting; I'm seeing two different versions of the album art on RP, depending on where I look.
Just hearing (and understanding) the lyrics for the first time ever. They *did* make better music back in the day.

How is that I'm still not burned out on this song?
Shocked! Shocked, I tell you, to find this Time piece has garnered only an average 9.1. So shocked am I that I've broken down and decided to exercise one of my remaining rights, and I've, therefore, rated a song. Yes, you read write: I've rated my first song here on RP. A 10 (ten). The injustice of a mere 9.x will never be righted, I know, but far off in the infinite future, if there is any justice in this existence, the rating for this song will at least asymptotically approach the level it deserves. I can sleep forever now knowing I did what I could in my time.

Dark side of the moon. Bright side of the music. TIme-less!

Hopefully NOT from someone trying to give it the 11 it deserves...
to Quote from this board:
TIMELESS in its excellence, in its sheer mastery of all relevant musical conventions, and its ability to transcend and move well beyond.
This is like an aural dark chocolate cake with a moist inside and cream topping. Only I don't nearly pass out when overdosing on this.
Much of their work leaves me cold, but this is superb. It never gets tiresome, no matter how many times I hear it. 10 for sure.
The time is the biggest mystery. Nobody knows how it works, but is fair for everyone and everything.

Amazing that Roger's lyrics were so spot on when he was a younger man — And then you find one day 20 years have got behind you.

One of the best guitar solos from the era of album classic rock. Maybe the best guitar solo of all time.

Had it rated at 10 but as "Time" passes I like it more and more. A 12 for now,...maybe more later. Now it's up the volume and watch the speakers dance!
