Time is Slipping Away
By: John Zeiler

Seconds, minutes, hours pass and the time is slipping away.
Time passes me by and I still do not know you.
Time is slipping away.
And yet, seconds seem like hours when I look into your eyes,
Hours that make my life bearable.
Time is slipping away.
I want to hold you, to know you, to love you.
I want you to feel the same way as me.
Time is slipping away,
And it is too late for me now.
Time has passed me by and you have found another.
And although I will never hold you, know you, or love you,
I will always remember you.
Your words, your face, your name,
Will always be engraved into my soul.
But so will the eternal pain of loss...
