Time Goes By

Can't you feel the thunder rollin'
In a young man's heart
Can't you see the frustration
It's tearin' him apart

He's got a hunger for power
He wants to have it all
Sometimes he feels like he's bangin'
His head up against the wall

Out in the real world living a lie
Can't seem to make the change
But he can't say why? As time goes by

Nobody really knows what to say
Tomorrow is another day
That seems a million miles away
So far away

Time goes by
Bridges burn and big wheels turn
And time can fly
Will it ever bring you back again?

You know that I can't live without your love
(Time goes by)
You know I'll never make it alone
Make it alone, make it alone

Can't you see the fire
Burnin' in a young girl's eyes
Does she think that she moves ahead
If she cuts me down to size

Everybody's got two cents
To try to buy some time
They don't even know their own hearts
What can they know of mine?

Call out for reasons echoes the cry
She waits, anticipates
No reply as time goes by

Oh baby, I don't know what to say
Tomorrow is another day
You seem a million miles away, so far away

Time goes by
Bridges burn and big wheels turn
And time can fly
Will it ever bring you back again?

You know that I can't live without your love
(Time goes by)
You know I'll never make it alone
Make it alone, make it alone, make it

We all bear witness as history unfolds
Let's hope tomorrow can deliver
On the promise that she holds

Don't look back in anger
Don't look ahead in fear
You just keep takin' her as she comes
Until she comes in clear

The love you send out
Returns to you in time
The wheel gets turned around
By those who try for all their lives

Time goes by
Bridges burn and big wheels turn
And time can fly
Will it ever bring you back again?

You know that I can't live without your love
(Time goes by)
You know I'll never make it alone
Make it alone, make it alone, make it
