Lyrics
Verse 1:
Just like every kid who?s ever born, I did believe that I would live forever
I?d be everlasting; like a bottle of that one off vintage wine
But now I see beyond the clearing, days and nights are disappearing
Faster than the thought goes through my mind
Chorus:
Running out of time, looking at the clock upon the wall
Thinking of a day when I was small and I prayed that time would fly
And it sure did: It sure did, and now I find I?m running out of time
Verse 2:
When I think of all the sand that I was happy to see slipping through my fingers
I wish that I?d have clenched my fist and saved a few more years in either hand
My Momma said, ?You live and learn, you can?t go back, You can?t return?
I thought I could, but now I know I can?t
Chorus:
Running out of time, looking at the clock upon the wall
Thinking of the days when I was small and I prayed that time would fly
And it sure did, yeah it sure did, and now I find I?m running out of time
