Lost In Time
Memories all seem like just yesterday
As time brings you another birthday
Where does time go, you want to know
You look around it's the big four O
The seconds are passing, the minutes move on
Night slips away to a brand new dawn
Where does time go, you want to know
You look around, and you've turned five O!
Each year that passes, the decades that chime
Moves life forward in the passage of time
Your yesteryears have gone, your tomorrows will go
Where has time gone, you want to know
You then realize you're on a roll
Time keeps on moving and taking its toll
Where does time go, you want to know
It seemed like just yesterday you had a youthful glow
Your vision gets blurry, your movement gets slow
Where has time gone, you wish you did know
But you keep writing in verse and in rhyme
As another birthday is lost in, time....
