Songs:Nothing But Time (57463)

Lyrics

STEVE SESKIN
CRAIG CAROTHERS

I am eighty-one years old
Anymore nothing's like it used to be
Most of all me
My Elizabeth is gone
But her memory keeps me strong
I stare at her picture
My mind drifts away
And it feels like I'm with her
Lost in yesterday

I am twenty-three years old
Comin' home, taking off my uniform
After the war
Lizzy is standing on the pier
I can see her smile from here
We found an apartment
Our place in the sun
And three children later
We're still like two kids in love

CHORUS:
I can't believe how much it hurts
To be the one left behind
I always thought I'd go first
Now I'm left with nothing but time

When you're young you can't picture the end of the line
You run around thinkin' you've got nothing but time

I am sixty-four years old
And you know in seven months I can retire
It's down to the wire
We're busy makin' travel plans
Second honeymoon in France
The neighborhood's changing
The kids are all grown
Me and the misses
Have learned to love our time alone

REPEAT CHORUS
