Another night slips past the window Another day's gone on it's way A mountain of yesterdays mounting And the tomorrows are fading away Take hold of my hand and don't lose it Listen well to the words that I say Remember me when I'm gone forever Come visit me wherever I lay
How many birthdays have past now Since you were my little child How many scratches and bruises From you playing just a little too wild Time took us both on this journey But all journeys must come to end Don't dwell on the sadness of parting But on the times that we had to spend
Another summer is fading behind us As the leaves prepare for the fall Ah the winter will soon be upon us I can already hear it's cold call But the warmth in your eyes keeps me smiling And I'm proud of what you've become You look down upon me so tall now But you're still my precious young one
Another night slips past the window Another day closes the door I know that sometimes you wish things Could be like they were before But years of grace are upon you And you don't need my hand anymore I've given all the love I can give you And tomorrow the day will be yours
