Years Go By Lyrics

We get born, we get raised
We grow up and get a job and build a life on what it pays
From the cradle to the grave
We make hurry up a habit like the rabbit in the race
That second hand don’t ever take a breather
The way we run don’t look like we will either

Time’s gonna fly
It ain’t gonna stop
Can’t beg, steal, or borrow from a stubborn old clock
Before you know tomorrow is yesterday’s page
How years go by
Years go by these days

I look in the mirror, I see my dad
I tell that rebel rousing teenage me that he ain’t all that bad
It felt like a week ago, I found the one
Now God must be laughing ’cause he’s sending us a son
Hearing that baby’s heartbeat was the kicker
There’s only so many ticks in these tickers

Time’s gonna fly
It ain’t gonna stop
Can’t beg, steal, or borrow from a stubborn old clock
Before you know tomorrow is yesterday’s page
How years go by
Years go by these days

Time’s gonna fly
No, it ain’t gonna stop
Can’t beg, steal, or borrow from a stubborn old clock
Before you know tomorrow is yesterday’s page
How years go by
Years go by, by

Years go by
Years go by
Yeah, years go by
Years go by these days
