Lyrics

It seems like only yesterday I laid my eyes on you
How many years have passed us by I wouldn't like to know

Where did our time go?

Since we first stepped on the earth our destiny was sown
We took a self-destructive path defaulting on the loan

Where did our time go?

And now when I look in the mirror
I don't know who I'm going to see
The man who resembles my father
Or the boy who I'm longing to be

Through my eyes you haven't changed you look as good as new
How many years are left in us I wouldn't like to know

Where did our time go?
