Joe cussed as the light turned red,
And one thought ran through his head
He should've been home by now
And two blocks from where he sits,
Two young lovers call it quits
Cause it ain't working out
Well, Joe's gonna be late for supper
And they're both wondering what now

Chorus:
And even though you can't hear it,
It still makes a sound
It might be right beside you,
Oh if you just look around
In a world that turns so quickly,
So many things can pass
In a Minute and a Half

Dan tells the nurse he's fine,
But deep down he knows its time
To close his weary eyes
And two floors down from where he lay,
A proud father is amazed,
When he hears the baby cry
Well, Dan's eyes close, and Bob's open,
Oh, but they both see the light

Chorus:
And even though you can't hear it,
It still makes a sound
It might be right beside you,
Oh if you just look around
In a world that turns so quickly,
So many things can pass
In a Minute and a Half

In a world that turns so quickly,
So many things can pass
In a Minute and a Half
