Lost Dreams
What happened to the years
somehow they just slipped away,
Now, looking in the mirror
I see myself old and gray.
What happened to my dreams
they’ve gone unfulfilled?
Now, I suddenly realize
to Father Time I must yield.
What happened to the fire
that burned deep in my soul?
Now, it’s just a spark as the years
have taken their toll.
The years have come and gone
they’ve stolen my dreams one by one,
Father Time walks on by
laughing at the things I should have done.
