Time goes by fast But memories that last Are like snap-shots of the past That we view in contrast To the here and now And so we make a vow To apply the breaks And avoid our past mistakes
Time goes by fast And nothing ever lasts For those who are miscast Or the errant iconoclast
In the rear view mirror Things become much clearer To the standard bearer Who sees them much nearer Than they were before When it was easier to ignore The intricate designs Of the various warning signs
Time goes by fast And nothing ever lasts For those who are miscast Or the errant iconoclast
Seconds minutes hours With all it’s magical powers We observe like blooming flowers That time finally devours
And as slowly we retreat To our thoughts so bitter sweet Not acquiescing to defeat That occasionally we meet So we long for yesteryear Cuz we’re far away from there And the veil is very shear Between there and here
Time goes by fast And nothing ever lasts For those who are miscast Or the errant iconoclast
Time goes by fast But memories that last Are like snap-shots of the past That we view in contrast To the here and now And so we make a vow To apply the breaks And avoid our past mistakes
