Lyrics

Looking back at some of my old photographsFaces that I used too knowThere are people who are no longer with usMoments they are set in stoneClass of 84 in uniformBirthdays parties, wedding cakeGraduation day in cap and gownAnd all those holidays in SpainThose days are past and long gone, but never forgottenHere in my hands I hold time, time not forgottenAll the memories in one blue suitcaseA life that has been captured on filmFrom baby, through to child, through to adult hoodAnd while I looking time stands stillPapas dozing off in the armchairDad has gone and grown a beardMamas looking stunning in her new dressStill wondering if her hips, wondering if her hips too bigThose days are past and long gone, but never forgottenHere in my hands I hold time, time not forgottenThose days are past and long gone, but never forgottenHere in my hands I hold time, time not forgottenSo I put the old suitcase back in the loftWaiting for a rainy dayMemories locked up safe in the atticAnd time just seemed to slip, time just seemed to slip away
