I'm shedding skin that longs to stay
This mirror shows a child's face
I catch a scent from years ago
Regretfully reminded that I've grown
This fleeting innocence
Reminds me that I need to hold on
To time as it speeds along
Barely out of reach
In early days I wished for rain
To help me sprout towards the planes
Looking back on future's past
Show me how to make the present last
This fleeting innocence
Reminds me that I need to hold on
To time as it speeds along
Barely out of reach
Drowning in a sea
Of responsibility
Then I begin to see
The value in these fading memories
This fleeting innocence
Reminds me of the things I've learned
As time goes on
Goes on
As time goes on
Goes on, goes on
