Lyrics

0:23Time of day I can't recall
0:26The kind of thing that takes its toll
0:29Over years and over time
0:32Over smiles and over wine
0:34All in all it wasn't bad
0:37All in all it wasn't good
0:40But I still care
0:45That's the problem with the days
0:48They're never long enough to say
0:51What it is you never said
0:54All the books you never read
0:56I throw myself into the wind
0:59Hoping somebody might pick me up
1:03And carry me again
1:11Where are you now
1:15Do you let me down
1:22Do you make me grieve for you
1:33Do I make you proud
1:39Do you get me now
1:45Am I your pride and joy
1:54I believe this to be true
1:56There's nothing sacred nothing new
1:59No one tells you when its time
2:02There are no warnings only signs
2:05Then you know that you're alone
2:07You're not a child anymore
2:11But you're still scared
2:16All your mountains turn to rocks
2:19All your oceans turn to drops
2:22They are nothing like you thought;
2:24You can't be something you are not
2:27Life is not a looking glass
2:30Don't get tangled in your past
2:33Like I am learning not to
2:42Where are you now
2:47Do you let me down
2:53Do you make me grieve for you
3:02Do I make you proud
3:10Do you get me now
3:16Am I your pride and joy
Time of day I can't recall
The kind of thing that takes its toll
Over years and over time
Over smiles and over wine
All in all it wasn't bad
All in all it wasn't good
But I still care
That's the problem with the days
They're never long enough to say
What it is you never said
All the books you never read
I throw myself into the wind
Hoping somebody might pick me up
And carry me again
Where are you now
Do you let me down
Do you make me grieve for you
Do I make you proud
Do you get me now
Am I your pride and joy
I believe this to be true
There's nothing sacred  nothing new
No one tells you when its time
There are no warnings  only signs
Then you know that you're alone
You're not a child anymore
But you're still scared
All your mountains turn to rocks
All your oceans turn to drops
They are nothing like you thought;
You can't be something you are not
Life is not a looking glass
Don't get tangled in your past
Like I am learning not to
Where are you now
Do you let me down
Do you make me grieve for you
Do I make you proud
Do you get me now
Am I your pride and joy
