Don't feel bad when the nice things you've had |
|
Get tattered and must be laid away |
|
The nice things you had |
|
They're so many grains of sand |
|
And they're only the toys in time's great game |
|
Time gives and time takes away |
|
And don't look back when your childhood has ended |
|
You knew it couldn't last forever |
|
The young things the spring brings |
|
Snow covers over |
|
And they're only the toys in time's great game |
|
Time gives and time takes away |
|
And don't ask why when a close friend dies |
|
Though it feels like a page has been ripped from your life |
|
We run our race in an hourglass in space |
|
And we're only the toys in time's great game |
|
Time gives and time takes away |
