Time Is Ticking
Memories, a summer breezeI'm on the bus almost getting homeOut on the street, Miami heatI miss the smell of my Dad's cologneAnd it seems to me like a melodyMy favorite song on the radioWhen you knowTurn it back before it goes
My front door, the corner storeClimbin' the tree in my old backyardMy mother's smile from ear to earWhen I got all A's on my report cardI can see them all when I close my eyesIt doesn't seem that long agoWhen you knowYou turn it back before it goes
Time is tickin' away, yeahBut it was just yesterday, yeahThough it'll never be gone, yeahWe gotta live for today
Ice Cream from the Dairy QueenOn the corner by the Orange BowlMy Grandma's voice always tellin' meI'd understand when I was old
You can make mistakes, it'll be okBut when you learn it's a pot o' goldWhen you knowTo turn it back before it goes
Time is tickin' away, yeahBut it was just yesterday, yeahThough it'll never be gone, yeahWe gotta live for today
Everything you live and you doBecomes a part of you, soYou'll get back what you spread around
Everything you think and you sayIs gonna show up some waySo why not always take the higher ground
Time is Tickin' Away, Yeah(El tiempo pasa y no vuelve jamás solo lo bueno quiero recordar)But it was just yesterday, Yeah(Solo este día es el hay que vivir, hacia adelante yo voy a seguir)Though it will never be gone, yeah(Solo te enseña la vida es verdad y lo que buscas lo vas a encontrar)We've got to live for today(Hay que vivir para hoy)
Time is Tickin' Away, Yeah(El tiempo pasa)But it was just yesterday, Yeah(Y no vuelve jamás)Though it will never be gone, yeah(Solo lo bueno, solo lo bueno quiero recordar)We've got to live for today(Hay que vivir para hoy)
Time is Tickin' Away,(Y no vuelve jamás)
But it was just yesterday
