Nine times out of ten
You'll find me starting at my calendar
I'll be surprised you don't think I'm insane
Memories constantly haunt me
But the realization always hits me
That I'll never get to relive them again
I'm sorry I'm nostalgic for the past
Maybe if I stare at the clock hard enough
Time will suddenly slow down
Instead of moving so fast
My old man once said
"Son, you don't have time to waste
No one wants to die alone
With an empty feeling in their chest
Wherever you go, go with all your heart
But all I ask from you
Is that you'll take your lover's hand
And tell her ...
