How Time Flies Songtext
von The O’Jays

Seems like it was only yesterday
We were children going out to play
But a lot of things have gone down since then
Sometimes it feels good to remember when

Uh-huh, uh-huh

Time flies
Ooh, ooh, time flies

We didn′t have a care in the world
We didn't know about responsibilities
But now we′ve got a lot of things to do
And there's so many places we've got to see

Ooh, ooh, time flies
Ooh, ooh, time flies

And before you know it, everything′s changing
And we keep on watching the world go by
Keep on watching the world go by
Said we keep on watching the world go by


Every day there′s something
People are changing, yeah
People are sad
Some people are happy, though

And now watching the world go by
Keep on watching the world go by
Said we keep on watching

Hey, the time's slipping away
Time flies
I said time, time flies away
Time sure flies
Twenty-four hours makes a whole day
Seems like they′re running into one another
Year after year, they go so fast
Where are we going? What are we after?
Hey, time, time flies
Ooh, ooh, time sure flies


And before you know it, everything's changing
And they keep on, they keep on watching the world go by
Keep on, keep on watching the world go by
Said they keep on watching the world go by
Every day there′s something or other, brother
People keep changing, changing
Some people are sad
Some people are happy, yeah

And they keep on, they keep on watching the world go by
Just to see, just to see
Watching the world go by
Said they keep on watching
