A Million Miles From Home

Time is a lot like distance When a memory is concerned The older we get the further we are From the things that we once learned One more day is another mile From the way that we were taught The priceless time when we grew up A memory that can't be bought The day we finished high school We thought that we were grown One more mile and another day As we set out on our own Then the day that we got married We would walk a few more miles Another day and further away As we faced out troubles and trials Time is a lot like distance Every second that we roam It slips away a little each day 'Til were a million miles from home
