Bottle Of Rain

Morning came through my window
Didn't stop to say hello
Quickly made way for afternoon
Afternoon stuck around
Only 'till the sun went down
Suddenly I'm staring at the moon

Monday came and went so fast
Barely noticed Tuesday pass
Wednesday just couldn't stick around
Thursday Friday Saturday
What happened to them I can't say
I'm losing time and losing ground

(cho)
Where'd it go
The time that I had
Where'd they go
The plans that I made
Once upon a time was like an ocean before me
Now its like a bottle full of rain

Today feels like yesterday
Yesterday's a mile away
Don't believe tomorrow never came
Tomorrow came weeks ago
I don't have a thing to show
All my life is still the same

The New Year began today
Tomorrow is the end of May
Indian summer's round the bend
I'm moving at a crawl
I still trip over fall
I'm right where I started at the end

(cho)

Life can be funny
When you're spending time like money
Never saving for a rainy day
You have to go and take it
You can't buy it you can't make it
There ain't enough hours in the day

Constantly persistent
Annoyingly insistent
Can't be any other way
Even as I kill it
I can't seem to still it
The rest of my life still slips away
