Time

Tick, tock, tick, tock.
   I hear the days march on.
Tick, tock, tick, tock
   Those days are long since gone.

Of happy, laughing, giggling times,
   and playtime without ends.

But now our time it slows and goes
   and gives us mem'ries still
Of times when time flew oh so fast
   'til now, when time's to kill.

... but, never to stand still.
... marching on and on until ...
