Was a time when I was younger I saw things get out of hand Now I'm older in the story I realize where I've been It's time I finally said These days is almost gone These days is almost gone These days is almost gone Don't be late 'Cause the sun won't wait Takin' time and patience To turn ourselves around And maybe it's just learnin' To live with what we found I love to hear the sound When you wait too long To get it right Life can pass you by The second chance Can be you're last I'm reachin' for the light Yes I am These days is almost gone These days is almost gone These days is almost gone Don't be late 'Cause the sun won't wait These days is almost gone These days is almost gone These days is almost gone Don't be late 'Cause the sun won't wait Days is almost gone (repeat to fade)
