time just flies
it goes so fast
the present, the future
it all ends up as the past

you lose family, you lose friends
they just can’t stay
it happens and you can’t stop it
time just flies as tomorrow becomes yesterday

time just flies
as good memories are locked up in the back of your head
always thinking about past times
about things we can’t forget

cause time just flies
as images of bad scenes are stuck in your brain
as you think of moments of grief
as you remember those feelings that remain

as you move on further
searching your personal track
you do it automatically
you always think back

yes, time just flies
as you grow older every year
wasn’t it easier, so many years ago
still wishing you were there

I don’t want to know my future
that would make it rough
trying to change it and escaping your destiny
knowing your past is worse enough

I say it over and over, time just flies
as you have those moments in your mind
moments that make you move forward
and make you leaving them far behind

it’s necessary to remember
and to plan ahead too
but I will stay in the present
cause I’m still waiting for you
