AS TIME GOES ON

A cool air blows the wet of the dew

The sun is rising on the early morning few

A new day is born-so new so strange

Think of the moments-as they pass on to age

As time goes on

Greet each day with a friendly thought

Awake from your dream and think of all that you've got

The life that you lead it's all in the mind

There's always more happiness than what you find

As time goes on

Take in a breath breath the fresh air

Take always a moment to show that you care

For love's just a word so meaningless alone

Love is measured by what you show

As time goes on

Don't be afraid-there's no reprise

Show what you feel-you may be surprised

Don't hurt by intention-Don't love with apprehension

For life itself brings enough pain

If you feel a love-then make it plain

Before time goes on
