In this list are my favorite time-themed songs. Now, if you run some searches on songs and time, you'll find lots of lists. There's lists of songs about time. There's lists of songs with the word

It is a moment of coming face-to-face with mortality and what that looks like through the singer's point-of-view, so without further ado...
