The Passing Of Yesterday

Hear the clock ticking As time passes by Watch as the seasons disappear At the wink of an eye See how a child grows And the years speed on their way Knowing there is nothing we can do To stop the passing of yesterday One day we are children Walking to school Next we are teenagers Breaking all the rules Then we are adults With children of our own And then like magic They have families of their own One day we are young Then we are old And the time in between Is our tender years That pass so quickly They are gone without trace Leaving only the memories Of the magic we couldn’t contain
