Time will not be mastered He will do just as he please He will watch you when you stumble Watch you fall upon your knees He will place upon your breaking back A weight you cannot hold And as you stand there broken He will watch you growing old
In your youth you'll want to laugh at him You're too young to be afraid And you'll keep him from your company And you'll turn your gaze away But as the years lie heavy And you turn and he's still there You may try to treat him gently But he's grown too old to care But while there's time Take a chance, join the laughter, join the dance And just sing along With the lovers who walk hand in hand, life is grand But too short for the learning Try not to hear but the wheel is still turning
You will reach out with your shaking hands He will welcome you with grace But as you move to touch him You will see he has no face For he hides behind the shadow Like a thief hides out of sight And like a thief, he waits for you As your day approaches night But while there's time Take a chance, join the laughter, join the dance And just sing along With the lovers who walk hand in hand, life is grand But too short for the learning Try not to hear but the wheel is still turning
But while there's time Take a chance, join the laughter, join the dance And just sing along With the lovers who walk hand in hand, life is grand But too short for the learning Try not to hear but the wheel is still turning, turning and turning
