Time Lyrics - Shel Silverstein

Ain't the snow fallin' just a bit deeper these days 

Aren't they building the stairs a bit steeper these days 

And the town's really changin' in so many ways time time time 

The young folks they're growin' exceptionally tall 

And the newspaper print it's becomin' quite small 

And folks speak so softly you can hardly hear at all time time time 

The jokes don't seem as witty as the old jokes once were 

And the girls are half as pretty as I remember her 

And today you know in the park a young man called me sir time time time 

Yeah I'm not quite as anxious for fame or success 

And my eye finds the girl in the plain quiet dress 

And I cling a bit longer to each warm caress time time time
