Time, Where are you going? 

It seems you've left me far behind you

A moment I’d forgotten, I moment when I tried

I turned just for a second and the whole world passed me by

It seems I never told you, I love you so

My love goes with you, please let it grow

The time's passed before me, there stand many truths untold

They dwell here to haunt me, so bitter and so cold

Where, where are you going?

It seems you've left me far behind you

The chances slipped on by me, and soon you'd gone away

You were just a child then, but look at you today.

You know I never told you, I love you so

My love goes with you, Please let it grow

It's all here inside me, a pain that throbs within

I've played a lot of games now, and the time is growing thin.

Where, where will you go next?

It seems you've left me far behind you

I pray the Lord to keep you, safe from this cold world

Away from pain and hunger, with all you're faith unfurled

It seems I never told you, I love you so.

My love goes with you, Please let it grow.

Just keep your light shining for all the world to see.

Someday it will repay you, when you know the world is free.
