Time Not On Your Side

Time Not On Your Side You dont know why you never saw it coming but you got old People, places changing you feel left out in the cold Memory fading hangovers feel much worse Time you had on your side now its all a curse Aches and pains a plenty hair is going grey Life seems slower fading from day to day the looks you depended on desolve and lines appear things you never thought about consume you now with fear You look back over life and analyse your mistakes you achieved nothing you didnt have what it takes better to have loved and lost you think about what slipped away thinking cliches are what all the happy people say One day closer to the grave, how did i spend my time Jealous of others living a better life than mine You cant change your past no matter how much you try Time is always pushin on untill the day you day. Ageging like a fine wine was the dream you dreamt Staring father time in the eye treating it with contempt Now its all caught up on you how could you be so nieve Being old and frail is not what they had you believe Losing hold of your senses, life has left you drained nobody interested in your stories or the experience you gained Moving into the final phase at least you had a go so much you could have done but now you'll never know.
