Featured Unknown/Underrated Song: "Isn't It Time" by the Babys

We go back to 1977 for this great song that was ignored by enough radio stations to stall at #13:


"Isn't It Time"
Babys



Written by Jack Conrad and Ray Kennedy

Falling in love was the
Last thing i had on my mind
Holding you is a warmth
That i thought i could never find

(sitting here all alone)
Just trying to decide
(whether to go all alone)
Or stay by your side
(then i stop myself because)
I know i could cry
I just can't find the answers
To the questions that keep going through my mind
Hey babe!
Isn't it time?

(isn't time it took time to wait)
(falling in love could be your mistake)
Isn't it time
(isn't time you took time to wait)
(falling in love could be your mistake)

I've seen visions of someone like you in my life
A love that's strong reaching out
Holding me through the darkest night
(sitting here all alone)
Just trying to decide
(whether to go all alone)
Or stay by your side
(then i stop myself because)
I don't want to cry
I just can't find the answers
To the questions that keep going through my mind
Hey babe!
Isn't it time?

(isn't it time it took time to wait)
(falling in love could be your mistake)
(isn't time you took time to wait)
(falling in love could be your mistake)
(isn't time you took time to wait)
(falling in love could be your mistake)

I feel a warmth in my heart
And my soul that i never knew
This love affair gives me strength
That i need just to get me through

(sitting here all alone)
Just wondering why
(then i stop myself because)
I know i could cry
(then i think of you)
And everything seems alright
I've finally found the answers
To the questions that keep going through my mind
Hey babe!
Isn't it time?

(isn't time you don't have to wait)
(don't have to wait)
I know it's time
Ooh yeah
I know it's time
It must be time

(don't have to wait)
(losing this love could be your mistake)
(isn't time you don't have to wait)
(don't have to wait)
It oughta be time
(isn't time you don't have to wait)
(isn't time you don't have to wait)
It must be time

(don't have to wait)
(losing this love could be your mistake)
(isn't time you don't have to wait)
(isn't time you don't have to wait)
(losin' this love could be your mistake)
(isn't time you don't have to wait)
It oughta be time
