Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes - Time Is Running Wild lyrics

Time Is Running Wild (J. Lyon/Nicholson/G. Tallent) I found my mother leafing through A book of photographs And with the rustle of each page She heard a young boy's laugh Then she turned and looked at me Said, "Son, I feel so old" And in that moment I could see All the years take hold Time is running wild again Stirring up the past Days I thought would never end Have flown away so fast The old man in the mirror Well, he only sees a child Time is running wild They buried my father in a blue serge suit That I'd never seen him wear I still see him in his fishing clothes With the sea wind in his hair They carved his name on a small bra** plaque On a pier out in the bay A storm came by in early spring And blew it all away Time is running wild again Stirring up the past Days I thought would never end Have flown away so fast The old man in the mirror Well, he only sees a child Time is running wild We're all born to innocence Free to run and play We never see the road behind us Crumbling away Time is running wild again Stirring up the past All those days I thought would never, never end They've flown away so fast Now when I look in the mirror Still I only see a child Time is running wild Time is running wild Time is running wild
