Starin' like a blind bat, walkin' like a stray cat
You're not who you used to be
When life was plain and simple and your wife was at your table
Now she's packed her bags and she's headed East

You're talkin' much wiser and you're thinkin' much clearer
But I can still see you ache
Your house is all but empty and escrow's coming quickly
And you're talkin' about the comin' change

Time, time just keeps on movin', movin' like a freight train
Why, you can't ask why, you'll just get caught up in a hurricane
Accept what's come and gone
'Cause the present's all we got

It'd be easy as pie just to give up and die
And wonder how it all went wrong
To drown there in your sorrows and worry 'bout tomorrow
And let the past just eat you up

You're burning like a matchstick, scattered like ashes
All over the darkest seas
This wasn't what you pictured two years ago
But sometimes things happen and we've got no control

Time, time just keeps on movin', movin' like a freight train
Why, you can't ask why, you'll just get caught up in a hurricane
Accept what's come and gone
'Cause the present's all we got
'Cause the present's all we got

Oh, my friend, I'll meet you somewhere in the middle
Somewhere between the desert and the sea
Oh, my friend, I'll meet you somewhere in the middle
Somewhere between the desert and the sea

Time, time just keeps on movin', movin' like a freight train
Why, you can't ask why, you'll just get caught up in a hurricane

Time just keeps on movin'
Time just keeps on movin'
Time just keeps on movin'
