I woke up this morning and looked at my life Filled with so much sorrow and grief And in my troubled mind I could see through all my strife That time is only a thief Yes time is a thief That will steal your tomorrows And leave you only yesterday Yes time is a thief That will rob you of your years
Your youth the only ransom you can pay So treasure each little moment Don't let a single minute slip away Because time is a thief That will rob you of your years And never return one yesterday Oh time is a thief That will rob you of your years And never return one yesterday
