Life Gets Away

We're tied to our memories
 They won't let us stray
 We're not gonna lose ones
 We made yesterday
 We look to our future
 And we make all our plans
 As if we control what
 Is out of our hands
 The world keeps on turning
 I'm learning to see
 Right where I am is
 Where I have to be
 You can't count the pages
 All ages hear the call
 No matter how hard we try
 Life gets away from us all
 We start getting older
 The moment we live
 Look over your shoulder
 There's hindsight to give
 Come good days and bad days
 The sun's gonna rise
 So why look beyond what's
 In front of your eyes
 The world keeps on turning
 I'm learning to see
 Right where I am is
 Where I have to be
 You can't count the pages
 All ages hear the call
 No matter how hard we try
 Life gets away from us all
 No matter how hard we try
 Life gets away from us all
