Børns - Time Flies

My, how time flies
And I'm trying to tie down my time from flying
Away, away, away, hmmmm

Well, you could find me permanently entertaining
Running around butt naked when it was raining
And staining my kneecaps with blood and tree sap
Man, I could stay in those days
Making and creating anything of the sort
I didn't follow the other kid cookie cutting a tree fort
But I made a teepee, and my father helped me

My, how time flies
And I'm trying to tie down my time from flying
Away
My, my, my, many memories have gone by
And I'm catching quite a supply of love in my life

Like it was yesterday, I was nearly half my size
Pounding nails, making potions with Pa
And Clyde would come with me outside while Pa sat in his chair
And I wished to the stars that he would stay there
I always loved to be sick at over my grandma's
Wandering out to the alleyway wearing only pajamas
And she, she told me "don't go touching the whiskey", so I turned rocks into my friends
I better leave it all, playing in the water for hours, then rinsing off, and bearing it all outside in the shower
I'd be alone on a stone in the creek
And I was told to be a man when a hook's making me weak
What a treat it was, that damn candy store
Gave me a sweet tooth and an excuse
Couldn't get away with that word before
And the candy man just gave me more

My, how time flies
And I'm trying to tie down my time from flying
Away
My, my, my, many memories have gone by
And I'm catching quite a supply of love in my life

My, how time flies
And I'm trying to tie down my time
And my time's up
Mmmmm

Na EPce "A Dream Between" piosenka ta ma dłuższy tekst, którego niestety nigdzie nie znalazłam; w wersji na żywo tekst jest krótszy (patrz teledysk). ~ StrifyaStrange
