lyrics

Once we were children
Not a care in the world
I ain't have much on my head but a
couple of curls
A life I miss dearly
But the past is the past
If I spend it weeping
I don't think that I'll last

Because you'll laugh and you'll sing and you'll do many things, in this life that you call your own
And the people you love, they'll all fly off like doves, now it's your turn to take the throne

As we get older
One thing becomes clear
Time waits for no one
Don't let it interfere
So talk to that girl you like
With her glimmering eyes
They shine like the road your on so
Say your goodbyes

To the fears in your heart, and the faults in your art, may your troubles fade to gray
To the pain in your brain, that you just can't explain, as you sob in this little cafe
To the things that I do that remind me of you, that leave me in disarray
To all of your troubles that still leave you puzzled
You've just got to live in today
