Donna Hughes - Father Time lyrics

rate me

The wind is blowing, through the pines

Always stealing from me, father time

Taking from me, what was never mine

One more day

One more night

Always longing, for the past

Taking for granted, the time at hand

Every moment, like shifting sand

Leaving weary

The strongest man

Many fortunes have been gained & lost

Upon the ocean many ships have crossed

Many brilliant souls have lived & died

At the hands of father time I’m not promised, another day

Still I’m reckless, and time I waste

All my tears cried in vain

Gaining wisdom

As beauty fades

Gaining wisdom

As beauty fades

Many seasons now have come & gone

Fleeting memories overwhelm my soul

And as the hands of fate twist & unwind

I’m at the mercy............of father time
