Time waits for no-one, time never will
But moments of happiness can make time seem still
But time moves on swiftly and passes life by
So while life rides the train, time always flies

Life rides the train, for some it moves slow
Some never find where their train of life will go
If it's bound to hell or to heaven on high
While life rides the train, time always flies

As life rides the train, some get off the track
For one careless moment, but never get back
Until it's much too late and time has passed them by
So while life rides the train, time always flies

Life rides the train, for some it moves slow
Some never find where their train of life will go
If it's bound to hell or to heaven on high
And while life rides the train, time always flies
