Tied To The Past

The changes keep happening and few things seem to last But I am one of many who is tied to the past And of the past the good memories with us do remain Though sad times we don't wish to think of again That it has gone forever of the past can be said And the future for all of us does lay ahead To the father of time we eventually do bow And we only can live in the here and the now That for many life does seem unfair is so true And for millions a change of luck is overdue That money makes us unequal to say a sad thing Of the praises of paupers anyone never sing I feel tied to the past there are many like me Who try to cling to a fading memory.
