In the days I was young
In the days I was young
Sang many songs in the days I was young
Still just a few that have yet to be sung
As I went through my life and moved on in my years the songs were replaced by the salt of my tears
I think what it is that I'm trying to say is time rushes in, takes so much away
Family and loved ones, some buried and gone
Melodies linger, I keep holding on
Life is gift but it goes by so fast
Something we borrow, not meant to last
It all goes in cycles from birth until death
We breathe in the air till our very last breath
Cheri
sh the good and the fact you're alive
A new song is pending not yet to arrive
The music keeps changing, please let me explain
There's joy and there's sorrow
There's loss and there's gain
Living and dying we must understand,
The hourglass empties, it runs out of sand
Numerous things left to see and to do
The songs keep on playing until they're all through
Remember this always don't ever forget, live like you haven't a single regret
Still just a few that have yet to be sung
Sang many songs in the days I was young
