Time - Shel Silverstein

作词：Shel Silverstein

作曲：Shel Silverstein

Ain't the snow

Falling just

A bit

Deeper

These days

Aren't they

Building the stairs

A bit steeper

These days

And the town's

Really changin'

In so many ways

Time

Time

Time

The young folks

They're growin'

Exceptionally tall

And the newspaper print

It's

Becoming

Quite small

And folks

Speak so soft

You can

Hardly hear at all

Time

Time

Time

The jokes

Don't seem as witty

As the old jokes once were

And the gals aren't

Half as pretty as

I remember her

And today

You know

In the park

A young man called me Sir

Time

Time

Time

Yeah I'm not

Quite as anxious

For fame

Or success

And my eye finds the girl

In the

Plain quiet dress

And I cling a bit longer

To each warm caress

Time

Time

Time

So I breathe a bit heavy

When I climb a hill

What of it

My life now is really

Much more fulfilled

But

They're tearin' down buildings

That I watched 'em build

Time

Time

Time

Time

Time

Time

Time

Time
