Composed. performed, produced by Bob Forbes.
Pictures on the mantle are dusted by the years,
Each frame holds a story, painted with joy or tears.
We traveled through seasons, hand in hand we roamed,
Now it's nearing a finale, in a place we called home.
Oh, the past is in this song we try to sing,
Filled with promises that are sometimes hidden.
But days keep on ticking, like a river flowing down,
The time of our lives, lost but never gone.
Though the road ahead is filled with untold dreams,
We carry our memories, beaming through the seams.
Forever in my heart, you'll be dancing in the light,
A bittersweet reminder, that love can set you right.
Oh, the past is in this song we try to sing,
Filled with promises that are sometimes hidden.
But days keep on ticking, like a river flowing down,
The time of our lives, lost but never gone.
Cheers to the moments, that shaped who we are,
With accolades of yesterday, you'll always be my star.
In the quiet of the night, I still hear your gentle call,
For in my mind darling, you will always stand tall.
Oh, the past is in this song we try to sing,
Filled with promises that are sometimes hidden.
But days keep on ticking, like a river flowing down,
The time of our lives, lost but never gone.
