Time Is Running Wild

(J. Lyon/Nicholson/G. Tallent)

I found my mother leafing through

A book of photographs

And with the rustle of each page

She heard a young boy's laugh

Then she turned and looked at me

Said, "Son, I feel so old"

And in that moment I could see

All the years take hold

Time is running wild again

Stirring up the past

Days I thought would never end

Have flown away so fast

The old man in the mirror

Well, he only sees a child

Time is running wild

They buried my father in a blue serge suit

That I'd never seen him wear

I still see him in his fishing clothes

With the sea wind in his hair

They carved his name on a small brass plaque

On a pier out in the bay

A storm came by in early spring

And blew it all away

Time is running wild again

Stirring up the past

Days I thought would never end

Have flown away so fast

The old man in the mirror

Well, he only sees a child

Time is running wild

We're all born to innocence

Free to run and play

We never see the road behind us

Crumbling away

Time is running wild again

Stirring up the past

All those days I thought would never, never end

They've flown away so fast

Now when I look in the mirror

Still I only see a child

Time is running wild

Time is running wild

Time is running wild
