And still time goes on...


PEOPLE COME AND SOMETIMES LEAVE

WALK INTO AND OUT OF OUR LIFE WITHOUT WARNING

SOME STAY LONGER THAN OTHERS

WHILE SOME SEEM GONE BY MORNING

 

BUT EACH PERSON WHO CROSSES OUR PATH

BRINGS A NEW EXPERIENCE

SOME GOOD, SOME BAD

AND SOME QUITE GLORIOUS

 

ITS THOSE THAT ENRICH OUR LIVES

THAT HURTS SO WHEN THEY MUST LEAVE

SAYING GOODBYE IS SELDOM EASY

BUT WITH LASTING MEMORIES WE CAN CLEAVE

 

FOR IN THE END NO MATTER HOW WE WANT THINGS TO BE 

THE PERFECT ENDING FOR OUR SONG

THIS THING CALLED LIFE IS NOT PERFECT

AND STILL TIME GOES ON
