Lyrics
When I was a child time was just fine
As deep as the summer sky and just as warm and kind
Time flowed so slowly and so sweet and mild
I gave it no thought, I was a child
When I was a young man my time was all mine
I spent it like spare change, I didn't heed the signs
I didn't answer no questions, I didn't stand in no lines
I did what I wanted, I took my time
Now I have a child and time blindsides me
I rub my eyes and another year slips behind me
The days are like the trains I ride
An express straight to the end of the line
It wouldn't matter a damn if it stopped on a dime
I don't remember, don't remember which stop is mine
Which stop is mine?
Now I look ahead and time don't seem so kind
A few live till they die but most whither
And some even loose their minds
Well I won't have it, I won't just decline
Winter won't stop me, the sun don't stop shinnin
I'll live like a child, I'll defy the design
I got time, I got time. I got time. I got time
Oh
What happened to time?
When did it change?
When did the everyday become so strange?
What happened to time?
What did I do with mine?
