Time must fly

Like the passing sky

Whose tearful clouds roll by

Never knowing why

Like the shadows of the night

They'll be gone from sight

When dawn brings the new day's light

    

You and I

Like those clouds on high

Might sadly start to cry

Though we both know why

Like the shadows of the night

We'll be gone from sight

When dawn brings the new day's light

    

Our time has flown away now

We must try

To somehow

Say goodbye
