Mama now I know you gave us everything But at the time it felt like it was free Cause as a child time don’t cost anything
Papa now I know why you had to go away Tomorrow calls collecting on today The apple falls running from the tree
Time rolling right on past We’re gone in just a flash Gone just like shattered glass Broken from the pane All that remains is love
Sister now I know all you’ve had to do If only we could trade each other’s shoes I’d walk a lifetime to know what you been through
Child I hope you know what you mean to me With children of your own you’ll know exactly what I mean The circle turns eternally
Time rolling right on past We’re gone in just a flash Gone just like shattered glass Broken from the pane All that remains is love All that remains is love All that remains, all that remains All that remains
