Where have all those years gone?
Only a little while ago
I
was a little boy laughing in the sun,
Running in the garden
And
sitting on my mummy's knee,
Enjoying the comfort of her
cuddle.
But now, my own children sit on mine
And I just
wonder where the years have gone.
Only days ago, or so it seems,
Was my first day in school,
So
willing to learn and to please.
Now I see the nervous smile of
my child,
All smart in crisp in uniform
And I have to ask,
where have all the days gone?
Only yesterday, I was the man about town,
All dressed up and
ready to rock and roll,
To the pub and then to the scene,
Maybe
a kebab house and then back home
As the sun and the kids came
out to play.
Now I am the man about the house,
Mortgaged to
the hilt with nowhere to go,
And I really would like to
know,
Where have all my years gone?
