Time is like Old photographs and reflections and persistent reveries By and by No moments grasped with affection til they're distant memories And what seems mundane today Is tomorrow's nostalgic wave Like a dream we can't retain Until the moment that we're awake And unable to engage Time flies We were absorbed with the future, now we're pining for the past Likewise We have ignored every juncture 'til the time there has elapsed We once looked forward to this age Now we're yearning for yesterday Always swimming in the wake Of the memories we sustain And even when we are at home Our minds are always on the road And we're longing for a place we've never known And with our minds confined To always living in hindsight Time slips by And we are bystanders within our own lives We are bystanders within our own lives We are bystanders within our own lives We've contrived These anecdotes and renditions that our minds seek and discern Idealized We're chasing ghosts and traditions of a time we can't return And we tend to gaze away Toward tomorrow and yesterday As we flip from page to page Merely glancing around each phrase And Even when we are at home Our minds are always on the road And we're longing for a place we've never known And with our minds confined To living in hindsight Time slips by And we are bystanders within our own lives We are bystanders within our own lives We are bystanders within our own lives And with every breath a moment passes by Into a past we've glamorized With our minds confined to living in hindsight We are bystanders within our own lives We are bystanders within our own lives We are bystanders within our own lives
