I can't say the last time I saw you
Was any different than any time before
It's the same old feeling
So many ways to say things
If you can find the time
For the ones that you love
You someday leave behind
You wonder where you'll be
20 years from now
As people come and they go
Fade in, fade out
So don't you miss me when I'm gone
Don't tell me you knew all along
That it was gonna be this way
'Cause nothing is forever
And time slips away
It slips away
We all try to find someone
Some place that remains
As the years keep on rolling Rolling away
And I can't say for certain
But I pray that there's still time
If I can meet you in the middle
For some peace of mind
So don't you miss me when I'm gone
Don't tell me you knew all along
That it was gonna be this way
'Cause nothing is forever
And time slips away
It slips away
