wheres the time gone
 
Tick-tock
tick-tock
Goes the clock
Will it ever stop

where does the time go
when its all said and done

Does it hide behind the day
Or play games with our heads
just to keep us wondering
why here we lie once again in bed

I don't like playing time games
and bed time comes to fast
I like the morning best
but with the ticking of time it never last

I find myself up and starting a new day
only to find myself in bed again
Time is not my friend
and never has it been

Now i sit by a window
Waiting for the early light to come
So i can take a walk
And see the beauty of the sun

I wait for someone to come and take me
since time has withered me with its touch
I can't walk without assistance
But always thankful..I have so much

From the beginning to the end
time has never been my friend
The lines of time are shown on my face
If only it could slow its pace

for i have much still to accomplish
and more roads to walk upon
even though the body weak
I keep pushing ....on going on

So why does time go so fast
A lesson maybe to be found
not to take our lifes for granted
but to cherish each moment
while were healthy and still around

Where has the time gone
So easy to answer now
Its gone because I let it go
By not holding on to treasures found

Hurry,rush --not slowing down
chasing things of no importance
Then seeing all those wasted days
that time has stolen abruptly away

tick-tock
tick-tock
there goes the time
Don't let it slip by



Written by Janet Ford..

Makes us think about each and everyday and making
each day count.. Cause father time is ticking on...
