I remember long ago, dear
We used to walk barefoot hand in hand
We were young and so in love then
Time never entered in our plans
But now it rolls on
Like a train and the river
In a new place every day
Time rolls on
Like a train and the river
Carrying our lives away
Looking back on
All that we've done
It seems that we haven't done much at all
And up ahead there's so much left
And so little time to do it all
And time is rolling on
Like a train and the river
In a new place every day
Time is rolling on
Like a train and the river
Carrying our lives away
Today's sadness
Tomorrow's madness
There's nowhere to run
And nowhere to fall
In a minute
Your chance is given
So forget your future
Once and for all
For time is rolling on
Like a train and the river
In a new place every day
Time rolls on
Like a train and the river
Carrying our lives away
Time rolls on
Like a train and the river
In a new place every day
Time rolls on
Like a train and the river
Carrying our lives away
