In the town where I grew up You still can hear the chime Of the old courthouse clock As it counts away the time Uncountable are the days That too this place have come and gone Causing so much here to change In this town that I call home The passing of the time Has taken loved ones dear And nothing is the same Without their presence here Time changes everything It doesn't slow nor stop So continues the counting chime Of the old courthouse clock RLB

The Old Courthouse Clock
In the town where I grew up You still can hear the chime Of the old courthouse clock As it counts away the time Uncountable are the days That too this place have come and gone Causing so much here to change In this town that I call home The passing of the time Has taken loved ones dear And nothing is the same Without their presence here Time changes everything It doesn't slow nor stop So continues the counting chime Of the old courthouse clock RLB
