|
We're tied to our memories
|
they won't let us stray.
|
We're not gonna lose ones
|
we made yesterday.
|
We look to our future
|
and we make all our plans
|
as if we control what
|
is out of our hands.
|
|
(CHORUS)
|
The world keeps on turning
|
i'm learning to see
|
right where i am is
|
where i have to be.
|
You can't count the pages
|
all ages hear the call.
|
No matter how hard we try
|
life gets away from us all.
|
|
We start getting older
|
the moment we live,
|
look over your shoulder
|
there's hindsight to give.
|
Come good days and bad days
|
the sun's gonna rise
|
so why look beyond what's
|
in front of your eyes.
|
|
(REPEAT CHORUS)
|
|
No matter how hard we try
|
life gets away from us all.
