Lyrics

0:11Once you were a young man
0:20Now you are old you're over the hill
0:31And you can't 'cross the palm of time's hand
0:41Silver and gold to make him stand still
0:53Who could've possibly thought
1:03It would go so fast
1:08But it certainly did
1:14And now you find yourself caught
1:24With less future than past
1:30You're no longer a kid
1:38Once as a boy time weighted heavy on your hands
1:49You couldn't wait to be a man
1:58Now you cry oh it's so hard to laugh
2:09And you can't understand
2:14Why you can't turn time around
2:20Your hourglass once had a top half
2:31It was filled full of sand
2:37But it's all trickled down
Once you were a young man
Now you are old you're over the hill
And you can't 'cross the palm of time's hand
Silver and gold to make him stand still
Who could've possibly thought
It would go so fast
But it certainly did
And now you find yourself caught
With less future than past
You're no longer a kid
Once as a boy time weighted heavy on your hands
You couldn't wait to be a man
Now you cry oh it's so hard to laugh
And you can't understand
Why you can't turn time around
Your hourglass once had a top half
It was filled full of sand
But it's all trickled down
