Whatever Happened to the Time

There comes a time when you’ve got to wonder:

Have you done enough now you’re half a hundred?

Check out your watch, You might say

"seems like 24 minutes in a day!”

whatever happened to the time?

It was Sergeant Pepper and apple wine

when I went to sleep

went to sleep

I went to sleep last night.

Had a dream - had a family

But when I woke up, no one’s next to me.

Close your eyes and it might disappear.

"seems like 52 days in a year!”

Whatever happened to the days?

it was Jimi Hendrix and Purple Haze

when I went to sleep

went to sleep

I went to sleep last night.

The sun is up over the hills of Ohio

Down the aisle with a smile I go

A second chance and a brand-new wife

"“seems like 30 years in a life".

Whatever happened to the years?

it was ‘A Beautiful Day’ and ‘Blood Sweat and Tears’

When I went to sleep

went to sleep

I went to sleep last night.
