I woke the other day

And saw my world has changed

The past is over but tomorrow's wishful thinking

I can't hold onto what's been done

I can't grab onto what's to come

And I'm just wishing I could stop, but

Life goes on

Come of age

Can't hold on

Turn the page

Time rolls on

Wipe these eyes

Yesterday laughs

Tomorrow cries

Memories are bittersweet

The good times we can't repeat

Those days are gone and we can never get them back

Now we must move ahead

Despite our fear and dread

We're all just wishing we could stop, but

Life goes on

Come of age

Can't hold on

Turn the page

Time rolls on

Wipe your eyes

Yesterday laughs

Tomorrow cries

With all our joys and fears

Wrapped in forgotten years

The past is laughing as today just slips away

Time tears down what we've made

And sets another stage

And I'm just wishing we could stop...
