When I was a baby I hadn't a care in the world, But now I'm a man, my troubles fill my head, When I was five it was good to be alive, But now I'm a man, I wish that I were dead. My how time rushes by, The moment you're born you start to die, Time waits for no man, And your life's spent, it's over before you begin. As I sit here at my window, My life comes back to me, It's been so long since the good days, It's been so long. And I count up all the wasted years, The hopes and the fears, The laughs and the tears, And I wonder, I wonder, I wonder what went wrong. When I was a boy I had the mind of a boy, But now I'm a man, ain't got no mind at all, When I was in my teens I had my share of dreams, But now I'm a man, ain't got no dreams at all. My how time rushes by, The moment you're born you start to die, Time waits for no man, And your life's spent, it's over before you begin. As I sit here at my window, My life comes back to me, It's been so long since the good days, It's been so long. And I count up all the wasted years, The hopes and the fears, The laughs and the tears, And I wonder, I wonder, I wonder what went wrong.
