We're tied to our memories  They won't let us stray  We're not gonna lose ones we made yesterday  We look to our future  And we make all our plans  As if we control what is out of our hands    The world keeps on turning  I'm learning to see  Right where I am is where I have to be  You can't count the pages  All ages hear the call  No matter how hard we try  Life gets away from us all    We start getting older  The moment we live  Look over your shoulder  There's hindsight to give  Come good days and bad days  The sun's gonna rise  So why look beyond what's   In front of your eyes    The world keeps on turning  I'm learning to see  Right where I am is where I have to be  You can't count the pages  All ages hear the call  No matter how hard we try  Life gets away from us all    No matter how hard we try  Life gets away from us all
