Time Moves On

Tick tock says the clock
The days are moving so quickly
Soon the day will end and then comes the black
With stars and moon moving so swiftly
Romance may be in the air
Now is the time to be free and wild
And never again will time let you pair
So be yourself but treat your mate so mild
Two together is the gem of the sea
That glows and shines
Being remembered and cherished with glee
When time passes and the church bell chimes
Calling you home to the Father
When it is your time to move along
Making room for the youthful with vigor
As the grandfather clock will bong
Is it eleven or twelve
Shall I hurry and speed my walk
To romance and dreams into which I delve
For tick tock again says the clock
