I Didnt See The The Time Go By

歌曲歌詞

Now as the wheel of life turns faster

Now as the seasons seem to fly

I see so many things at last but didn't see the time go by

I've known delight I've known disaster

The caviar the humble pie

From the absurd to the sublime

I didn't see the years roll on

I didn't know the road would bend

Refused to see when youth was gone

Pretending it might never end

Now there is price to pay for every day I threw away

It seems I've wasted half a lifetime

Within the blinking of an eye

I didn't hear the midnight chime

I didn't see the time go by

In still of nights and brief romances

I kissed the girls and made them cry

While there were balconies to climb

I didn't see the time go by

I was the guy with all the answers

The halfway-truths the little lies

So sure so certain in my prime

I didn't see the time go by

I hit the heights I bit the dirt

I left some wreckage in my way

I didn't see that lies can hurt

I didn't know how hearts can break

And now they come to haunt my mind

The lives I touched and left behind

I've sung a hundred songs of longing
