The Past Has Gone Forever

The past has gone forever and time ticks away We can only live in the now and the now is today The past good or bad for us a memory And that we must live in the now is our reality The past is behind us and forever dead And time ticking on and the future ahead The present is what matters and what will be will be For into the future even the psychic cannot see The sun brightly shining in a cloudless sky And the young bird for food to her parents does cry Like us they too only can live in the now Though to the father of time we eventually must bow The present is what matters and time ticks on fast And as for the past well it is in the past.
