Distant Memories

I took a walk down a broken street to see whats left behind
Memories of a different time got scrambled in my mind
caught a glimpse from another side not the one I used to know
It`s really sad that the older ones must go
The years fly past as seasons ebb and flow
And no one ever told us that time was so tight

Where have all the people gone that lived here long ago
Strewn around forgotten now as the winds of change must blow
All I have is a photograph that is faded black and white
see the happy childrens faces smiling with delight
Happiness will colour in my sight
And no one ever told us that time was so tight


Time is long but then it`s short in passing and reflection
All we see and what we feel is bound in its perception
They hear our song so quickly gone with all we have to give
If you please remember me then I can surely live
The years fly past as seasons ebb and flow
And no one ever told us time was so tight.
