lyrics

I see you in my children so I know you live on,
And even though (you won't meet) your body's not here you'll never be gone,
I see you in me, when I look in the mirror,
I Take a moment to reflect it makes me feel even nearer,

I see your face, remember smells, and yes I hear your voice you too,
I do my best to try and make you proud I hope that I do,
There's really no replacement for the time that's now gone,
Enjoy the time as it's ticking that's the point of the song,


Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
I appreciate the moments of my lifetime,

Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
I appreciate the people in my lifeline,

I said I'd do it all again and you know I meant that,
and now we have two children it's still a statement of fact,
And as time keeps on ticking we adapt as we grow,
Sometimes I'd like to freeze the moments cause I'm loving them so,

We do our best to capture time in mega-pixels and movie files,
Take one nice shot and then one w/ goofy smiles,
Holiday, vacation, and birthday pics are nice alright,
But what about the fact that we're reading to you both every night?

Maybe that's not picture worthy but I know the value's there,
Wish that I could capture feelings so you know how much we care,
We try our best to raise you and enjoy every phase,
and I know some day we'll look back, like those were the days,

Oh yes, but I can wait for that, cause those days are my present time,
the present is a present I present to you this pleasant rhyme,
the hands of time keep creeping like a thief committing petit crime,
I slow it down the best I can by letting every moment shine

Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
I appreciate the moments of my lifetime,

Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
Time, time, time keeps on ticking ticking,
I appreciate the people in my lifeline,

It's been a while since you were in my class,
A sign reminding that life's moving fast,
Memories more distant but I know you know I tried my best,
Answered questions taught life lessons it's more than just passing tests,

More than math, science, writing, history and reading,
Self-confidence, believing, what ever you're needing,
I've seen mothers become grandmas, former students having babies,
boys turn to men and girls become ladies,

I've seen some grow up, do well, they've graduated,
Others fell flat, they've drifted, they've faded,
Some are caught up in the struggle, Did others rise above it?
Embrace the ups and downs, it's beautiful, love it,

It's life and its challenges, the pain of progress,
Time keeps on ticking don't get bogged down by stress,
When your time is up look back what did you do?
And what will stand out when you remember you?
