Tick tock, tick tock, time is passing by
Sometimes it makes me happy and sometimes it makes me cry
Our busy time moves by so quickly, when at rest it sure slows down
Time is measured by what we do and how we move around
Einstin talked about  ripples in space-time and the relativity of life
Some people talk about the here and now and others about past life
Time is the continued sequence of events that occur throughout our day
Time is the measurement of what we are as we work and as we play
We plan and schedule and arrange our days with activities galore
And sometimes we just sit and veg and never move out of the door
So how can we make the best use of our time on a daily basis
If we procrastinate and sit around and get nothing done in stasis
Time has a way of flying by until our time is over
If we don’t use our will and make some changes our life we won’t turnover
Take the time, make some time, use your time spent well
Do the things that make you happy, do the things that to you compel
Do the things that bring you happiness and the things that bring a frown
Do the things that fill your day up rather than spending time lying down
For time moves by and before you know it your time will be complete
You want to look back at all you’ve done and know that your life was sweet
So take the time and do your best and consider each breathe as your last
For life passes us by so very quickly and before you know it life has passed
Count each tick tock as a gift to hold and cherish  as your own
Meet friends find love and celebrate and know that you have grown
