Andy Mineo - 1988 lyrics

What makes you think love will end
When you know that my whole life depends

Time, you just keep going
And one day you are going on without me
Time, you just keep going
And one day you are going on without me
Time, you just keep going
And one day you are going on without me
Time, time, where you going come back

Every coin got two sides
Every sword got two edges
Life begin as one ends
How will I be remembered
Mortal men, something 'bout 30
Make ya contemplate the journey
Ya heard me? (Uh) i told my momma "Can't
Believe I'm gettin' older
Wish that I could stop it" (Huh)
She like "What's ya other option?
You either in the grave or
You get another year
So blow these candles out
We just happy that you here"
I found a picture of me back in college
My skin was a little tighter
Body was more brolic
My baby face got a new wrinkle
Up on it by my eyelid
Told myself it must of been
From all of this smiling
Life, no one survives it
As much as we want to control it
It just throw suprises
When I was young all I
Heard was you got potential
But, I don't hear that no more
I hear the rent due
And every birthday is bittersweet
It mean our time is shorter
Before I see the Lord I want
To get some things in order
29, this the victory lap
My fellows gather around
We just open my gold plaque
Thought I would feel more excited
But really I'm kinda sad
Can I do it again or all my
Greatest days in my past?

Time, you just keep going
And one day you are going on without me
Time, come back, aye

I don't wanna do this when I'm 48
Well I could but I ain't cool as Jay
And I ain't cool as Ye
I'm kinda cool with grey
So when the salt and pepper look come
I'm ready for that day
I don't wanna stretch before I
Play ball or go bald
Lose strength today worrying about tomorrow
I had this moment
I was walking through the park
Saw a boy playing catch
A woman walking her dog i thought
In a hundred years none of us will be here
Replaced by new people that probably
Never cared you existed
Just living they life, minding they business
No matter how famous you get
They still forget ya

Remember the time
The Beatles said that they
More famous than Jesus?
I still think it's funny
Some people didn't know who
Paul McCartney was
Until he made a song with Yeezus
But, millions still gathered on Sunday
Preach

Life is less of a line, more like a circle
We can't wait to grow up
And pray for the reversal
Or pay for the reversal
Along the way I learn to enjoy
It while you have it
And forgive whoever hurt you 'cause
In the end if you don't get healed
You get revenge and even if it feels sweet
You never really win it's hard to sleep
Lay in bed and have peace when
You became the very thing you
Hated just to get even
So tell me what you believe in
It's nothing that you say it's
What your doing everyday
29 years of life look what I became (Momma)
'Cause, I'm a little less
Eager to prove something
More confident in who I am
It doesn't make for good TV but
Make me a better man

Time, you just keep going
And one day you are going on without me
Time, you just keep going
And one day you are going on without me
Time, you just keep going
And one day you are going on without me
Time, time, time, come back

Happy birthday dear Andy
Happy birthday to you
Hey, alright, ok alright
There we go, alright (Make it a good one)
Yeah, I had to think about it i'm in here
