Times Faded Youth
From morning to night
from day to night
time holds its age.
From its youth
to its wisdom
it grows old
old enough
to count the stars,
young enough
to follow our paths.
Time ages us
til' our dying day
til' our final pray
time defines us
time resigns us,
til' we can count the stars
time defines the
life we live
the time we spend
the day we define time
is when our day of
reckoning comes
