time is a thief

i woke this morning and i looked at my life

it was filled with so much sorrow and grief

and in my troubled mind

i could see through all my sorrows

that time is only a thief

time is a thief

that will rob you of your years

your youth the only ransom you can pay

so treasure each moment

don't let a single minute slip away

life is for the living

lord

i'm gonna try my best

to live life everyday

you see time is a thief

that rob you of your years

and never return ton yesterday
