Lyrics
Uphill Climb
© J.C. Ashbaker 10/3/21
Who should I ask, what can they say
When tomorrow hurries today
It came on so fast, the future has passed
Everything's rushing my way
It used to be so slow and easy
Quiet like a clock on the wall
Now it's buzzing... like a wake-up call
--Refrain--
When I was younger, all I did was laugh and smile
And now when I remember, all I can do is cry
All of a sudden, everything's has its own time
And I'm rolling downhill, on this uphill climb
--------------------------------------------------
You've got it made, you're still in the shade
Brighter than the sun as it shines
I hope your smile, lasts a long while
And never leaves you behind
And when it's so slow and easy
It's Quiet like a clock on the wall
And then it starts buzzing, just like a wake-up call
--Refrain--
When you get older, I hope, all you do is laugh and smile
And if you remember, oh, God, I hope you don't cry
Slowly, but surely, everything's has its own time
So Keep rolling uphill, higher on your uphill climb
Keep rolling uphill, higher on your uphill climb
-End-
Keep rolling uphill, higher on your uphill climb x2
