At any convenient time?”

“This is the time to remember
'Cause it will not last forever.
These are the days to hold on to
'Cause we won't, although we'll want to.
This is the time,
But time is gonna change.
You've given me the best of you
But now I need the rest of you.”

Billy Joel (1949) American singer-songwriter and pianist
