Counting the years as they
have gone by
I need a recount, I need
to know why
Where have they gone? What
happened, and when?
I used to be young and I
had a life then
Lost in confusion, I live
while I can
The total years of life
have a short span
Life can be hurtful, it
can be sad
But I’m so grateful of
what I’ve had
I can’t turn back the
hands of time
The life I have lived at
least it was mine
I’m sorry that I never
made the grade
So into the background I
gently fade
The years they flashed by,
they went so fast
This was my life, and now
it’s my past
Nothing can stop time from
ticking away
This is my life what more
can I say.
I do not regret anything
that I’ve done
Through some sadness there
was also fun
Too many heartaches and
too many tears
I need a total recount of
my living years
