Time Keeps On
A 1980s metal power ballad in D major at 75 bpm, opening with emotional clean electric guitar arpeggios and warm analog bass. Verses are spacious, leading to soaring distorted guitar riffs and big, reverb-drenched drums in the choruses. Emotional female vocals, rich harmonies, a powerful guitar solo, and cinematic synth layers create a nostalgic yet hopeful atmosphere.

Lyrics
Clock keeps ticking on the wall
Time keeps on, time keeps on
Time keeps on
His warm hand holds onto mine
Sweet words help to blur the line
Between the now and the unknown
Time keeps on, time keeps on
All the things we've shared and grown
Time keeps on
I ain't scared of where I'm going
Just wish I had a little more
Time keeps on, time keeps on
Time keeps on
All the love I've been knowing
Fills my heart right to the core
Time keeps on, time keeps on
Time keeps on
See him standing by my side
Faithful love that won't subside
Feel his touch so gentle there
Time keeps on, time keeps on
His soft kiss upon my hair
Time keeps on
I ain't scared of where I'm going
Just wish I had a little more
Time keeps on, time keeps on
Time keeps on
All the love I've been knowing
Fills my heart right to the core
Time keeps on, time keeps on
Time keeps on
Every breath’s a gift we're sharing
Every moment still so dear
Time keeps on, time keeps on
Feel his strength to keep me near
Time keeps on
No, I ain't scared of where I'm going
Just grateful for what came before
Time keeps on, time keeps on
Time keeps on
All the love we’ve been knowing
Made it worth each fight for life
Time keeps on, time keeps on
Time keeps on
Clock keeps ticking on the wall
Time keeps on, time keeps on
But love don’t stop at all
