[Intro] [fingerstyle acoustic guitar with alternating bass] [Verse 1] [baritone male vocals enter] Life is kind of funny How fast it goes Looking back through years that faded gray When we’re younger Time it seems to move so slow We could hardly wait to see each bright new day [Verse 2] Hopes and dreams keep filling up our seasons Like a treasure chest filled with memories Love comes and goes but we don't know the reason Like a summer day floating on a breeze [Chorus] And all my days have come and gone like the calming of a storm That raged then blew on out to sea And like the Lord that's up above my life's been filled with love And I might be somewhere you can't see But in the stillness of the night When you listen to the quiet Remember I'm still near you in a memory [Instrumental Break] [acoustic guitar solo with melodic hammer-ons] [Verse 3] Now the pace of change has left my life a-reeling The lines of time are written on my skin Every road I walked has led me to this feeling That every open door has a closing end [Chorus] And all my years have come and gone like the calming of a storm That raged then blew on out to sea And like the Lord that's up above my life's been filled with love And I might be somewhere you can't see [Outro] But in the stillness of the night When you listen to the quiet Remember I'm still near you in a memory Yes remember I'm still near you in a memory [guitar fades out on a final G major chord]
