Well, Ramona,
Forever seems like such a very long time
But time's the one thing
That's never on your side
I'm on your side
Yes, I'm on your side
Most of the time
And it's such a very good side
That's a very good sign
For peace and love and harmony
And all the things that lovers need
Like hope and health and clarity
And time
Oh, precious, precious time
Ramona,
Well, heavens to Betsy
You've got to try, try, try
Try to smile
More often than you do
It's the healthy, healthy, healthy
Thing to do
Well, Ramona,
Yesterday was very difficult for me
Difficult for you
So you kept your distance, too
Though I don't blame you
I could really use you now
I could use your company now
If we keeps our wits, somehow
We might just pull through
And, Ramona,
For goodness' sake
We've got to make, make, make
Make the most of our time
For peace and love and harmony
And all the things that lovers need
Like hope and health and clarity
And time
Oh, precious, precious time
