Chorus:

Time it moved so quickly

Time I thought would never pass away

But what can you do when you only desire

What you can't find the courage to do

And where can you hide when you’re bursting inside

And watch as the world passes through

Seems time has come, you must fade far away,

Leaving me here lonely and blue.

But is it too late, is it useless to say...

All I can think of is you?

Memories I never knew

Stuck with those memories of you.

Chorus

I gaze from my room to the street down below

And watch as you head down the lane.

I strike one last note and that tune reappears,,

A tune that's rung true through the years.

No one can know all the tears

A tune can recall through the years.

Chorus:
