Design - Gentle Giant

As years drift by

And future dies

He sits and he thinks

About all he’s done in life

I’m now an old man

What have I been in life?

What did I do?

Had no end to aspire to

His dreams as a boy

Were of hope and intention

Of making his mark

With his plans and invention

Where did they go

How could he know how time goes

In my day had to have

Certain future

But now you can do as you like

All that I might have wanted

Seeking what you’re after

But not for me

Everything comes to those who wait

I thought everything may come to me

Made my way only as I was able

He knows there’s no more he can do

No romances, now bitten today

For they have all his chances

All too late, no one waits

How time goes by

Seeking what you’re after

But not for me

Have as my years drift by

Never for me
