Where'd all the time go? It's starting to fly See how the hands go Waving goodbye And you know I get so forgetful When I look in your eyes ♪ Now she's walking backwards (she's walking backwards) Through a parade ♪ And I'm stuck in the shadow (stuck in the shadow) Blocking the shade ♪ And there ain't no way to sweep up The mess that we've made ♪ She gets dressed up like a pillow So she's always in bed Flowers for the sick and dead She's on the go, way too fast and way too slow She'll turn to stone at hospitals and funeral homes And when the fog rises Somebody sighs who is not in disguise anymore ♪ There's nothing to keep you (nothing to keep you) From falling in love
It starts at the bottom (starts at the bottom) And comes from above Like pieces of a puzzle Like a hand in a glove ♪ She gets dressed up like a pillow so she's always in bed Flowers for the sick and dead She's on the go, way too fast and way too slow She'll turn and stop at hospitals and funeral homes And when the tide rises Somebody sinks and is gone in the blink of an eye ♪ Somebody sinks and is gone in the blink of an eye
