Time
Take a minute and sit right down
And take a good look all around
We start our lives as babe,s in hand
Our parents have all kinds of plans
Needing help with everything we do
Before you know it we are going to school
Those years fly past before you know
Your no longer a child your fully grown
To start a life with a career
Making plans for coming years
Some of us will marry have children and then
It all starts to go round again
Your children grow up and fly the nest
Now its your time to take a rest
Again the years go flying by
Your getting old but still you try
To keep going until you can no more
Do things you want and wonder whats in store
For our hearts are like a big old clock
Ticking until one day it stops
Live everyday like its your last
For life goes past so very fast
