Rocking Horse
Time has a way of changing today into a memory
And all that?s left to see are some photographs
Taken somewhere long ago, they make us laugh
But soon you find
That you?ve been left behind
Do dreams carry on when the darkness is gone
And morning takes over then, reality again, and it grips you cold
Thinking one day you?ll wake up and find you?re old
What then
And tell me what?s left to win
From the rocking horse to the rocking chair
You?ve seen it all in your time
If I could only look through your eyes I?m sure I?d find
That from the rocking horse to the rocking chair
You?ve seen it all in your time
If I could only look with your eyes I?m sure I?d find
That time has a way of changing today into a memory
