Dreams drift away, like leaves on the water They roll down the river and slip out of sight
Too many times, we do what we are Put off till tomorrow, what we'd really rather do tonight
And later realize, time passes by People pass on, at the drop of a tear they're gone
Let's do what we dare, do what we like And love while we're here, before time passes by
Thoughts are like pennies, we keep in our pockets They're never worth nothing, till we give them away
Love's like a promise, in an unopened letter When nights full of pleasure, seldom see the light of day
When life gets in the way, time passes by People pass on, at the drop of a tear they're gone
Let's do what we dare, do what we like And love while we're here, before time passes by
Time passes by, people pass on At the drop of a tear they're gone
Let's do what we dare, do what we like And love while we're here, before time passes by
