- Lyrics:
If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
'Til eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you
If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again would spend them with you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with
If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with

He wrote this when he found out his wife was pregnant.. he wrote it for his soon to be son... He died when his son was only 13 months old.. scary thing is the song is about not having enough time with his son... Gives one chills
Chilling backstory. Gorgeous song he left us all.
Why is that scary
@@lukagrdzelishvili if you are a dad then you know why
Dude he didnt have time to see his son
@@lukagrdzelishvili he wrote a song about not having enough time with his son and then died when his son was 13 months old
He preformed this song only 1 month before his death.
All they simply asked was " what's with the periods". They didn't mean anything bad by it.
Jim Croce Died in a Plane Crash...So No, no one could have know nor seen it coming.
Edit: @Omega One
@Raymond Rocha I did Not take a offense from any of that. Nor do I mind putting Periods after every word. A person can write how ever they like. I was mearly making a slight clarification is all.
Edit: Even.I.Put.A.Lot.Of.Periods.In.Some.Of.My.Messages.From.Time.To.Time.When.I.Am.Writting.Fast.Or.Want.To.Make.My.Statement.To.Stand.Out.More.
He was really an amazing artist, definitely up there with sinatra and presley.
@Raymond Rocha why.do.you.type.this.way.?
My big brother was so protective of me and always looked after me growing up, even into adulthood. He spent his entire life alone. And then, in his 50’s, he got cancer. Having nobody to care for him and facing homelessness and cancer I moved him in with me to care for him. During that final 2 years of his life, he shared so many family memories with me and taught me so much, especially about God. Before he left this world, he left a folder on his computer for me to find after he’d gone. It contained a lot of his favorite music. Very personal songs that made him think of his family, and many of which reminded him of his baby brother. This was one of those songs.
I’m 56 now. The same age my brother was when I lost him 8 years ago. This song will forever remind me of Tony. Man, I wish I could have just one more day with him.
Nice and meaningful tribute to your brother. God bless you and I pray for his soul.
May God bless you for sharing your beautiful story ❤
I believe that no matter what religion you are, we will all meet again on a far golden shore in a land that is evergreen and peaceful. We will be rejoined with our loved ones and our ancestors, and we will feast and rejoice and be at peace. I'm so sorry for your loss and the pain you have endured, but always remember you will see him again one day, and you won't be sad any more on that day. Much love to you, stay strong, my friend.
My dad was childhood friends with Jim. They went to school together. He still cries when one of his songs comes on the radio.
Wait really?
Lies
Not all that farfetched, but still who really cares
I believe you.
Fact checkers said it’s misinformation so it’s real
A little backstory Jim Croce wrote this song when he was 30 before he died as part of an album but when he died the album was incomplete so it was released as a single... And it became his greatest hit RIP Jim
The greatest thing an artist can do for his career is die.
Actually it was a little different. This song was part of Jim's first album, "You Don't Mess Around With Jim", but was not released as a single and was not a hit, much as it deserved to be both those things. Then he released his second LP, the one with "Bad Bad Leroy Brown" on it, and there may have been one more hit song on that LP, so no one was thinking about going back to the first LP at that point to find a hit, until some movie producers picked "Time In a Bottle" as the perfect song for their TV movie, "She Lives", about a young woman dying of cancer. They had gone to their local record store and bought a stack of pop LP's in hopes of finding the right song for their movie, and sat down and listened to them all, and when they heard "Time In a Bottle", they knew they had their song. On the night the movie aired (sometime in late summer 1973), TV stations got tons and tons of calls from people who had seen "She Lives", asking where they could get the record. And it was about one month later that Jim died in that plane crash. After a long time of plugging away as an under-recognized performer, he had one year of great success, topped off by this song.
MishiKay_Music , he actually wrote this song for his son.
@@tulayamalavenapi4028 Matt wasn't being negative intentionally. What i think he meant is that a celebrity becomes more famous after they die. It's sick but true. Look at people like Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison. They're legends now.
Not only his greatest hit, but the greatest song ever written
This was our wedding song on July 6, 1974. Today we are celebrating our 48th anniversary. It’s been wonderful!
Thats very wholesome 😁
This was my wife and i's wedding song as well, 10-10-2020. Hoping to have as much time as you have had!
Sending love and light may your marriage continue to bless him and be more beautiful as each day goes by
That's awesome! My folks got 60 years before Mom passed. A long happy marriage is a rare commodity-enjoy and congratulations!
🎉☘🍁🍂💐🍦🎂
My dad used to sing this to my mom. It's bittersweet to listen to now. He's been gone for seven years. Miss the old man
I'm sorry about that 😢
I just lost my dad a wk ago today. I remember he used to sing this song all the time too. I came here to listen to it cuz I miss him so much. I hope it brings you memories of your dad like it does mine.😢
Gosh... this is so heartbreaking. This was my father's fave Jim Croce's song before he died from pancreatic cancer. Now, this song hits on another different intensity since I learned yesterday that my mom's cancer is stage 4 and she has less than a year.
Update: My mom passed away 1 week after I posted my first comment. 😞😞😞
What??!!😢😢
So sad.....
best wishes my friend 🙏
Deeply sorry for your loss...what happened to your mother?
@@mjstwocents4568 she died from cancer. we found out too late.
@@sanshirada1119 I hope you have family and friends around you to console you. It's terrible to lose both parents no matter the age.
I swear time slows down every time I listen to this song
Time's not slowing down you're just moving so fast everyone else around you appeared to not be moving
Its only a 2 minute song but it feels loke it goes forever and thats still not long enough
I feel ya buddy
Put this at 0.75x and it sounds better
Amen brother
My only complaint, the song is too short
elias27villarreal yet the duration doesn’t feel that way
If I could save time in a bottle...
It's perfect. It leaves you wanting more.
Oh, the irony.
Mine too
His strong wife allowed us to hear this song. He loved her so. So happy to being a father . Thank Mrs Croce for releasing this song after the horrific helicopter crash. Had she not been strong and knew his fans wanted to hear it we would have never known how sensitive loving and just adored his wife and child. Again thank you Mrs Jim Croce. We all love you
Airplane crash.
But same outcome.

This song reminds me of how I'll never have enough time to spend with the ones I love
Every second has en eternity within it. Just cherish each eternity if that's all you have.
From ShadowRaven713
The music reminds me that i came here to be happy cuz it's epic
From what was my name again
@bruh bruh i did write that. And thank you for your honesty. 😊
Deep
I know man it gets depressing sometimes thinking about that
Love this song, the lyrics, the guitar, the voice. I'm old enough to remember when this was in the radio station cycle. Great music never dies.
That is why it is called Classic. Croce will be remembered as long as his song is remembered!
This song rips my heart out ever time I hear it….my mind races wide open about all the special people in my life…passed friends and relatives…but then I end up humming it for hours after the initial gut wrench. I would love to know his emotional response when he wrote and finished it the first time. It’s a masterpiece.
A guitar, a voice and poetry a recipe for perfection

I read that as he sang this
That part hit me so hard it brought me to tears no lie.
@@ynrkenshi ya same. such a beautifull song
The most significant "statement" in the song. (For me anyways).
This song says perfectly how i feel about my son and daughter ❤watching them grow and learn ,where does time go? In the blink of an eye they've grown into incredible adults ,yet sometimes when i see them ,a kalidescope of memories and their laughter fills my mind and heart,brings tears to my eyes ❤
Prayers and condolences..
This song should be a grim reminder for all of us to take advantage of today and to tell our loved ones we love them tomorrow is not promised yesterday is gone all we have is today let's make the most of it and hugged our loved ones and tell them how much you love them
I listen to this every time I have to rescue a guy who can control metal from a prison

We had this played as the opening to our wedding 41 years ago.
@Alexander Hey, it's been quite a ride over the 41 years. I was in the Air Force when we got married. Lived in Germany and Washington, DC and Minnesota. Retired to Michigan where we both became United Methodist pastors. Retired now and enjoying being together for as long as we have.
@Tom Spencer : It seems both of you did manage (and still yet) a fulfilling and blossoming family life. It feels so good and refreshing to read quiet sweet news.
Cheers ; )🍀
@@BumbleBeeOnTheBeach Yes we have. Been married 41 years, had two kids, now have 6 grandkids, lived in Germany twice, Washington, DC, and retired to Michigan. Thanks.

Your message cheered me up 🔋✨so thanks 🌞🌧💧💦 (Water is Life)🌈
@Tom spencer it is mood freshing to hear your lovely story
My husband used to sing this to me. He passed 5 weeks ago and I hear this song in my head at least 7 times a day. I feel it’s him reminding me. We were married 51 years.
I'm sorry for your loss but I'm sure it was a wonderful 51 years
I'm sorry for your loss. Big hug
Today my sister passed away on February 12,2022 I was listening to this song and I was thinking about my sister she help me so much and I thank God for giving me a wonderful sister I was truly blessed I hope one day when my time comes that I will see her again 🙏🙏🙏
So sorry for your loss
My heart truly does out to you for your loss❤
RIP
It will
It's the same god that took your sister away btw
Who else cries upon hearing this song?
This song is a real tearjerker for me
Same listeing to this after breakup😭😵😳😵😭 like an hour ago
I have decided to make this song even worse for you by telling you the story.
Time in a bottle was written by Jim Croce for his one year old son, and then one month later, he dies in a plane crash, and now the only memory he has of his father is his song, made for him.
Jim made a song about how much he loves his son, and how he wants to spend the rest of his life with him, and then dies a month later.
My mother cries when she listens to this.
Same here
I cry a lot to it, but no tears cuz of fucking testosterone.
I came here for the beautiful song.

Yep :)
Well that's not nice
Everybody else came here because x men

At the 1974 American Music Awards, Croce posthumously won "Favorite Male Vocalist Pop/Rock" honors. Singles from all three albums crowded the top ten, with “Time In A Bottle” reaching number #1 in 1974. The song's powerful, poignant lyrics foresaw a short life and what was dearest about it
I was 7 when he won this. I remember his widow picked up the award for him. I cried.
This song reminds me of my dad. Unfortunately he was a lost soul who died young from the effects of alcoholism. Dad, I forgive you....and you didn't lose. I'm gonna carry that torch for both of us.
Cecilia Mesquiti GOD BLESS
Melpomene, Love you for "Going to carry that torch" for your father! Prophetic as Jim Croce's "Time in a Bottle."
"The Millennium" will be a time of teaching and disciple.
You/The Elect will be teaching/showing the torch/"light of truth," to those who never had a chance to see "The Light" in their fresh bodies.
In the Millennium, The second chance / All questions will be answered, and "Every knee will bow!"
Bless your soul
So beautifully and profoundly said
Awe, bless
...i found a small piece of paper with parts of lyrics on it in my sisters handwriting, in an old book...... i looked all the lyrics up... i remember all these songs from when i was little and she listened to music all the time... so many memories of when she was different.. before she grew up and mixed with bad people... some of these are bands i still listen to.... i miss her so bad..
Greynight Arashi what happened to her?
She found a PhDنحلة
I feel you!
This song for you could represent the time you spent with her, for the rest of us that love the song for its beauty and not for some movie it represents other things and I'm sorry for your loss.
Miss ya Pops!!
I don’t care if this is a sad song, I think it sounds really sweet
This song wasn't one you knew,but it definitely describes how i feel about not having you around anymore.
I miss you grandma.
So sorry for your loss..🌷👀✨
This is honestly the best running music now.
Lek true
heh unintended Quicksilver reference
It's a great song for Quicksilver. You seem him running fast, talking fast (especially when he talks to the trio when they first meet him at his house), but he seemingly loves these slow peaceful songs when trying to get out of the middle of a gunfight.
Sebastian Valle i
It really is. until I see something moving in normal speed and I'm reminded that I don't have Quicksilver's superspeed.
When lyrics were still poetry
And now you've got "rappers" that haven't even said their first words yet
@Rohan B. : It still exists currently. Coldplay 💝
Today all we have is Butts and swear words
Allow me to introduce you to chill indie pop... (Ricky Montgomery: My Heart is Buried in Venice is amazing or pretty much anything by Hozier, Mitski, Rax Orange Country, Ricky Montgomery, Charlie Burg, or Matt Maltese is all really really good)
Heading Home by Alan Walker is actually quite poetic. I was surprised as the more I analyzed it, the more I realized how deep it is.
The most depressing thing about life is knowing that everyone you’ve love will eventually die
I guess they will remain immortal in your memory :'(
@@nerrylesjoe8157 not if you get dementia
no the worst thing is that nothing really matters we are born to work and suffer but also that
Well, as the old man once said, part of the journey is the end. That’s what gives it it’s beauty and make it’s so precious
@@nyooom9729 🤣 true ma man
This song is brilliant: slow tempo, haunting melody, beautiful lyrics, and SHORT, just like time.
This song is for my Will who sadly died aged 18 years old, the words are so true , I miss him every day, if I could have one day it would be with my Will
Stay strong

Thank you for making this timeless masterpiece.
Jim Croche left the earth way too soon but he sure left us with his beautiful music ! What a wonderful person and musician he is a legend and always will be as long as the people keep his music alive!
@Andybetz.99 Hi Andy ! Hope you have a great day! 😊
Beautiful, I'm in tears thinking of my soul mate that passed away suddenly last year.
Hi Catherine
Played this at the funeral of my first love. 41 years ago today. Rip Ruud. Never forgotten 💖
Anyone 2020
Almost 5 decades have passed but still my favourite song
Me too..65 is so different from..15!! I have had a wonderful life...I love this song.
WE KNOW IT'S 2020
What a great song, I’m here studying it to play on my guitar for my grandpa who loves it.
Hey there,
That is a beautiful gift you’re giving him!!!
💟💟💟
Parents and grandparents just want time together, with those they love, as that is more precious than silver and gold.
You both will cherish these memories.
If I may make a suggestion, if you don’t already do it, please record (audio, better if by video, so you can see and hear him long after he’s gone) EVERY conversation y’all have together!!!
Our loved ones are only here for a short while, though through salvation, we’ll be with them again… Praise be to God for that!!!
Anyway, thank you for sharing.
Take care, and God bless.
✝️💟🛐

Did you ever do it?
Try a Spanish guitar...more difficult, but more beautiful, too !
this song grabs time by the tail and forces it to slow down for a few moments, clears the mind and makes you think what's really important in life
You know your getting old when you remember when this was originally released.
Great songs will always outlast the test of time.
IcanbePsycho , my mom had the 45 of this song when I was a child , listened to this many times . I was 5 when this came out
Outlasting the test of time was one what about past memories
Every time I listen this song - and I do it often - I think about her, and time we had together. If only I could have saved that time in a bottle...
I feel you. The person I had love had left me. She had moved to get a better job I still think of her day and night
Me too. I had her for a short time. I have a wife and child since then but I can’t ever stop thinking of the one that left.
Not even a single girl loved me. I treat them very good. But they love the piece of shits who treads them like a son of a bitch. God,why am i ugly? I only have you in my life.
Ive loved this song for years but never have I felt it more than today. I lost the most important woman in my life today. My grandma made the hardest promise to keep by saying she'd live to see me graduate high school. And she kept that promise. I'll miss her for everyday I still live and if I could id spend the rest of my life on yesterdays where I'd visit her and see her just one more time and I know it would never be enough.
Bless you, sweetheart. I wish I could give you many hugs. You had a wonderful relationship with your grandma. That is so special and will never leave you. Wishing you many blessings 🙌
Time is something money can't buy..... live life now----- you never know how long......
This was my father's favorite Jim Croce song...he's now been gone for one year...I miss him.
Love you, Dad...I'll see you in the next life.~
I feel for you.
My fiancée died last august and I miss her dearly 😢😢😢
So so sorry. Try to keep the faith. She's still with you.💜
My mom passed away 11 years ago last month. This was also her favorite time. She played it for me once a few years ago and asked me to listen to the lyrics, but i didn't understand why. Today i actually listened to the lyrics, so now i know why she wanted me to listen to it. I didn't realize this song was for me at the time.
I meant favorite song. Idk how the word time got in there.
This was played at my grandpa's memorial service and when I listen to it I remember those I've lost...
I first heard it at a wedding when I was about 11. Love as much now as I did then. I think I or a sibling bought the 45 after the wedding. I like to save thyme in bottles too.
Such a beautiful song. Reminds me for my Dad, I wish he was here now.... I think and miss you so damned much....😭😭😭😭

If only Jim had known just how right he was. Taken far too soon, I wish we had 50 more albums from this guy. He’d probably still be writing hits for bands today.
I think he did though
This is a masterpiece
Jim was an absolute legend!! His music is timeless. We didn’t deserve him but I’m glad he did it
He only lived 30 Years. He died in a plane crash the same year this song was released.
His son AC Croce is a singer now.

the man I fell in love with promised me 40 years. After only 12, his poor body couldn't take struggling with COPD anymore and he is free now, flying with the angels. RIP, Robbie...You WERE the one I wanted to go through time with... I love you.
I spent as much time as I could with my Dad all through his illness. He died right in front of me. This song plays in my head all the time when I think about him. I feel like traveling through time to be in a time and space where he still exist. I miss him so much.
I'm gonna listen to this when I save my dad who can control metal from the pentagon
lol
Where he is held captive because he killed the president :P
D Weatherbee
Right
I think I just pissed myself
Had Jim's 8 Track! Played this song while my husband was in Vietnam! I grew up fast, many hard times! Made it! Older now, these are just memories! Loved this song so very much!
If it wasn't for testosterone I would be crying a river of tears, I'm crying but the tears won't come out😿 This song reminds me how precious time is and how no matter how much you love someone, there's only so much time you can spend with them😭❤️
One of the greatest songs of it's era. Both chilling and beautiful.
Anyone else getting anxious to do something productive while listening to this 😳
Im making a metal album.i got 2 solid songs.i broke off from my band a few months ago.but ive always wanted to create something that is mine.a piece of my soul for those to remember me by.this song is my drive truly.i get scared alot thinking i didnt do enough

I love these old songs ... it reminds of all the memories of being a child, having mum & dad in my life
I remember hearing this song as a young child and even though I couldn't put it into words...I remember this sad feeling and that the man singing the words was a bit sad too. It still makes me feel the same way decade's later. I didn't know he had died so tragically 💔
I Love this song every since
I heard it came out And
I heard on the stereo
Still PRICELESS after all
These's Years
I still Love This Song and
Always will ❤
I remember slow dancing to this song at my wedding reception. That was possibly the first time I'd ever cried in front of so many people.
Mine the moment I saw my soon to be wife coming down the aisle
This song made me think of my beautiful daughter who passed away at 11 months after a life in the hospital. Daddy is so sorry baby girl. I miss you forever. I can't keep going much longer
Hang in there, keep on living for her, and her memory. The world has hardships but you're stronger than all that. Keep going strong, you're doing great
You can go on I lost my daughter three years ago. I think about her every day. Love the Lord and your daughter and you will be fine .
I looked around enough to know Mr Dale your the one I will go through time with, you loved me since I was eighteen and almost 31 yrs later your still here, means a lot...at 50, so glad your mine...

In summer 1973 I moved from England to live in Chicago. The first song I heard on the radio was Bad Leroy Brown, which also mentioned Chicago. I’d never heard of Jim Croce in England. I bought his LP, and came to really love Time in a Bottle. Just weeks later I heard that he had died . So sad.
Is this Jim Croce performing? Such a memorable song we all wish we had written.
This was my mom and dad's wedding song. I haven't talked to them in over a decade. But this song... way too many emotions to express when I listen to it.
How could anyone put a thumbs down to this beautiful song that transcends time? Beautiful ❤️
The ones that have no taste in music at all
Not necessarily. It may have been painful to listen to this. It's very emotional, and beautiful
Jim wrote this for his boy that he didn't get to watch grow up as his father... My son would have been 20 in late 2021... Music! It's real the other way, with the shoe on the other foot as well.
i came after the quicksilver scene 👍, glad i came
This song makes me cherish my time with my family and friends.
I always hear Chow singing this on the elevator.
THE Joker yes
Ya
Thats how i found this song again After such a long time xD
I came here searching for it
This was the song my mom used to put me to sleep to when I was a baby.. I’m having a really rough night and I came to listen to this. Brought so many tears to my eyes. This is such a beautiful song
This is the most well written song I’ve ever heard
this was my cousins favorite song before she died. R.I.P. Nelie I love you fly high!😇

Seeing this was wrote for the songwriters son before he died made it hit so much harder. I’ve recently lost a good number of family members to different varying accidents, and today marked the loss of another. This song really helps me think about how I’m gunna wisely spend my time with what remaining family I have now. Rest In Peace to all of them. I love and miss every single one.
This was one of mother's favorite songs. Croce was her favorite artist. She passed recently. This song is...perfect. put the opening lyrics on the keepsake urns.
I have always admired Jim Croce. I was born in 1969 and from 1974 I have listened to the radio. Casey Kasem. The Top 40. Had an older brother who in turn became a DJ for Casa Radio. I listened to every record he owned.
From "The Beatles" to "Ted Nugent" Jim Croche was part of his world
I'm indian but I love English old age songs they are so silent and meaningful whenever I get ibs life threatening disease I hear to this and pain automatically comes down as mind relaxes
It feels like we are in a Time bottle missing the family throughout these long separation days and distancing due to the pandemic. Forever Loved in our Heart's is our Family. Never enough times to be together. We want that Time back without you it's not the same. 🌹❤😘Miss the Family Time. A TREASURED MEMORY IN OUR HEART'S .😥💔💔

For my husband who left me suddenly 2 months ago today. He was my best friend, love of my life and soulmate. We had 10 wonderful years together and he showed me what true love was, Tim (Ease) Wood 5/10/64-1/22/24 gone but never forgotten.
I feel sorry for your loss
So sad for you. Time will make your grief manageable, so stay strong until you get there, and treasure the beautiful memories you so obviously have of him. Sending comfort your way from someone who has suffered a big loss too.
Awe the sweetest gift from God sent me this 💜

Beautiful song, 1973, when I started my first full time job.
I've been looking for this song for years, it played at my grandmother's funeral and it's been an earworm since.
