Time keeps rolling, rolling
I keep hoping, hoping
I got a ways to go
The only thing we can't control is

Take me back
To riding bikes around the cul-de-sac
And jumping over sidewalk cracks
With my brother after school
Dreams we had
Never knew we would grow up so fast
And summers underneath the sun don't last
Even if you want them to

Then suddenly I woke up one day
Looking more like my dad
The world don't seem so big no more
And I gotta face the facts

Time keeps rolling, rolling
I keep hoping, hoping
I got a ways to go
The only thing we can't control is
Time ain't waiting, waiting
I keep praying, praying
I make the most of mine
And live my life before I run out of time

Take me back
To the river by the railroad tracks
In the backseat of that Pontiac
Learning how to fall in love

Oh, the harder you try you just can't slow it down
Cause the days turn to nights
Now the year goes around
And you laugh and you cry
People change and they die
And it all leads to now
Funny when you think about

Time keeps rolling, rolling
I keep hoping, hoping
I got a ways to go
The only thing we can't control is
Time ain't waiting, waiting
I keep praying, praying
I make the most of mine
And live my life before I run out of time

Time
Time

Then suddenly I woke up one day
Looking more like my dad
If he were here I bet he'd tell you
The only thing you can't get back is time

Time
Time
