Just Another Moment

Another second has gone forever, so fast now almost like a dream
When was the last time we were together?
Did we love or did it seem?
I do now know, I don't remember
When did we love, what does it mean?
It seems so cold; now it hits December
Everything seems to go so fast; how cruel, yet how keen

A minute swept away at my feet, it has gone oh, so far
Why does everything have to leave?
Here and gone like a shooting star
Here and gone without relief, here and gone, just like a car
As I think here on the street, I guess that's just the way things are

And so another day passed me by
So quickly now that I grow older
And so I sit and watch the sky, I lean my head upon your should
Watching, wondering why, oh, why must the days get long and colder
So I think and wonder with a sigh as I watch and wonder on the corner

Another year has come and gone, and yet it seems like yesterday
I was young and sang my song, and life was headed a different way
I did not know right from wrong, I did not have a moment so grey
Morning brings another dawn, and so I must go on with my day!
