Two loves in the same old house|Passed mid-life and they're winding down|Kids are gone but they're doing alright|Time has wings and it sure does fly|She says when did we go from dark to grey|Didn't see it comin' it just happened one day|He says I don't know but I don't ask why|Time has wings and it sure does fly|| You start out thinking you'll walk forever| Your soul stays young but your body becomes weathered| It's a truth of life that sneaks up from behind| Time has wings and it sure does fly||He says remember this house back in ‘82|Boards on the porch, holes in the roof|Stayed that way ‘til ‘85|Til we got a little help from your folks and mine|She stares out the window by the kitchen sink|Smiles for a minute as she stops and thinks|It sure has been one hell of a ride|Time has wings and it sure does fly|| CHORUS||Later that night when they both lie down|Through the silence of the dark she reaches out|Says I can't picture me not by your side|But time has wings and it sure does fly|
