Times Past

lyrics

Looking back at the frame with a picture of me,
I see a face not alone striving to be free,
He’ll never realize what life is worth,
Turn the page to the start where it all began,
Wasn’t right, needed out, had a different plan,
He'll never realize what life is worth,

I can’t escape this,
I can’t change the past,
The clock is ticking,
The minutes fly the hours pass,

I will grow to be a better man understanding now,
My mistakes that let me down,
Hate won’t help you now,

Looking back at the frame with a picture of me,
I see a face not alone striving to be free,
He never realized what life is worth,
Turn the page to the start where it all began,
Wasn’t right, needed out, had a different plan,
He never realized what life is worth,

I can’t escape this,
I can’t change the past,
The clock is ticking,
The minutes fly the hours pass,

We all grow up,
We take the chances head on,
Try to live out your dreams,
This life is shorter than it seems.
