Songs That Changed the World--The Most Important Songs of the Rock Era: "Time for Livin'" by the Association

This was thought-provoking at the time; the world has only gotten more rushed and more tense since then.  It's even more important now.  The Association found the secret to live and it's not in a fountain but in the message of this great song.  How many people do you know that rush around from sun-up to sundown trying to fit as many things into their hectic life as they can?  Is that you?






"Time for Livin"
by the Association


Lyrics and Music by Richard P. Addrisi and Donald J. Addrisi


I kicked off my shoes and felt the good earth under my feet
I loosened my tie and felt what it feels like to breathe
I found the secret to life, I took some time for livin'

I took off my watch and found I had all the time in the world
I opened my arms, so I could hold life like a beautiful girl
I laid down, all of my hang-ups forever

I looked around and saw what sweet things can be found
Simply by taking some time for livin'
Groovin' on little things life is givin'
From now on I'm takin' time for life

Too busy to stop and notice the things that are real
Embarrassed to talk, about all the things that I feel
It's so strange, never noticed the world all around me

Hey, look I've changed, my attitude's been rearranged
From now on I'm takin' some time for livin'
Groovin' on everythin' life is givin'
I'm gonna be takin' time for life

(For livin')
Groovin' on everythin' life is givin'
I'm gonna be takin' time for life
(For livin')
Groovin' on everythin' life is givin'
I'm gonna be takin' time for life

(For livin')
Groovin' on everythin' life is givin'
I'm gonna be takin' time for life
(For livin')
Groovin' on everythin' life is givin'
I'm gonna be takin' time for life

(For livin')
Groovin' on everythin' life is givin'
