Time Is Running Wild
(J. Lyon/Nicholson/G. Tallent)

I found my mother leafing through
A book of photographs
And with the rustle of each page
She heard a young boy`s laugh
Then she turned and looked at me
Said, "Son, I feel so old"
And in that moment I could see
All the years take hold

Time is running wild again
Stirring up the past
Days I thought would never end
Have flown away so fast
The old man in the mirror
Well, he only sees a child
Time is running wild

They buried my father in a blue serge suit
That I`d never seen him wear
I still see him in his fishing clothes
With the sea wind in his hair
They carved his name on a small brass plaque
On a pier out in the bay
A storm came by in early spring
And blew it all away

Time is running wild again
Stirring up the past
Days I thought would never end
Have flown away so fast
The old man in the mirror
Well, he only sees a child
Time is running wild

We`re all born to innocence
Free to run and play
We never see the road behind us
Crumbling away

Time is running wild again
Stirring up the past
All those days I thought would never, never end
They`ve flown away so fast
Now when I look in the mirror
Still I only see a child
Time is running wild
Time is running wild
Time is running wild
