Lyrics
Had another birthday,
Could've been the worst day I ever had
Got a little drunk, and I fell into a funk
And I woke up sad
Looked into the mirror;
there were lines around my eyes
Time flies
When you’re having fun
When you live on the run
The harder I go, the more I realize...
Time flies
Life is moving fast, and I’m running out of gas
Time ain’t on my side
I’m still in the race, and I’m barely keeping pace
But it’s worth the ride,
Waiting round the corner,
There’s another sweet surprise
Hey yeah
Time flies
Some sad day,
They’ll be taking me away,
But I won’t be dead.
'Cause even when I’m gone,
this stupid damn song will be in your head
I’ll be looking down with a twinkle in my eyes
