If the hands of time could stop
I would tell them to
For in a few years
Our lives will no longer be the same
If the hands of time could stop
I would tell them to
For you will be off to follow your dreams
And I to follow mine
No longer will you annoy me
With your laugh and bother
Me with your beautiful concern
No more sighs at my corny jokes
Or death stares at my weight comments
If the hands of time could stop
I would tell them to
For I will not always see one of
The most wonderful people on the planet
If I could
I would
But I cannot
Time will let me witness you blossom
During the Springtime of your life
I will watch you turn your dreams
Into an unbelievable reality
I will see you love
I will see you learn
I will see you grow
It is now that I realize I am grateful
That the hands of time cannot stop
