Time Keeps Slipping Away - Ronnie Milsap

I’ve been lookin' at my list of achievements

Next to a list of what I’d like to someday

My «like to» list is longer by a couple of pages

And time keeps slipping away

I always tell myself I’ll do it tomorrow

Then tomorrow turns into yesterday

Yeah, I’ve become the master of a million excuses

And time keeps slipping away

I’ve got the house, got the car

But I’ve still got the hunger

Got the job, got my friends

Who am I to complain?

Trouble is, I’ve got dreams

And I ain’t gettin' no younger

And time keeps slipping away

Yeah, time keeps slipping away

Over forty, but I’m just gettin' started

Wanna live a little more before it gets too late

For everything I’ve done, there’s still a hundred I want to’s

And time keeps slipping away

I’ve got the house, got the car

But I’ve still got the hunger

Got the job, got my friends

Who am I to complain?

Trouble is, I’ve got dreams

And I ain’t gettin' no younger

And time keeps slipping away

Oh, time keeps slipping away

Each day’s an open door

Yeah, what am I waiting for?

I’ve got one life, one chance

Oh, I’ve got the house, got the car

But I’ve still got the hunger

Got the job, got my friends

Who am I to complain?

Trouble is, I’ve got dreams

And I ain’t gettin' no younger

And time keeps slipping away

Oh, yeah

I’ve got the house, got the car

But I’ve still got the hunger

Got the job, got my friends

Who am I to complain?

Trouble is, I’ve got dreams

And I ain’t gettin' no younger

And time keeps slipping away

Yeah, time keeps slipping away

Listen, time keeps slipping

Time keeps slipping

Time keeps slipping away

That’s right
