    "Time" - Pink Floyd

    "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."

    This was sung by Minnie Driver. It appears in the credits of the Phantom of the Opera. They had wanted to intigrate it into the movie but it didn't work out. You can hear the melody in some of the clips though.

    Love this song. It describes so well how I've felt at a point of my life. I could have written it...
