When I was a baby I hadn't a care in the world, |
|
But now I'm a man, my troubles fill my head, |
|
When I was five it was good to be alive, |
|
But now I'm a man, I wish that I were dead. |
|
My how time rushes by, |
|
The moment you're born you start to die, |
|
Time waits for no man, |
|
And your life's spent, it's over before you begin. |
|
As I sit here at my window, |
|
My life comes back to me, |
|
It's been so long since the good days, |
|
It's been so long. |
|
And I count up all the wasted years, |
|
The hopes and the fears, |
|
The laughs and the tears, |
|
And I wonder, I wonder, I wonder what went wrong. |
|
When I was a boy I had the mind of a boy, |
|
But now I'm a man, ain't got no mind at all, |
|
When I was in my teens I had my share of dreams, |
|
But now I'm a man, ain't got no dreams at all. |
|
My how time rushes by, |
|
The moment you're born you start to die, |
|
Time waits for no man, |
|
And your life's spent, it's over before you begin. |
|
As I sit here at my window, |
|
My life comes back to me, |
|
It's been so long since the good days, |
|
It's been so long. |
|
And I count up all the wasted years, |
|
The hopes and the fears, |
|
The laughs and the tears, |
|
And I wonder, I wonder, I wonder what went wrong. |
