Time flys by

The mermaid and the Navaho flute And a ceramic doll in a polka dot bathing suit Sitting on the timber sideboard Watching the world go by In happy silence Watching time with indifference Just a day Watching the world go by Now the whales are cruising North under a cloudless sky They watch the shore with a lazy eye And Send a spout of water forth and eventually sink down to fly Watching the world go by In happy silence Watching time with indifference Just a day Watching The world go by Every moment is precious We could fall down the cracks at any time Take the chance to make the most of it And you’ll be colouring in between the lines Watching the world go by In happy silence Watching time with indifference Just a day Watching The world go by The world goes by The child sees the moment They don’t plan for the future They don’t need to be independent They don’t know yet about gossip and rumour Watching the world go by In happy silence Watching time with indifference Just a day Watching The world go by The world goes by Say bye bye There it goes The world just went by Watching the world go by
