He picked her up some flowers On a Sunday afternoon They sat out on the porch swing Underneath the crescent moon A lifetime seemed to pa** Staring at the skies And on the swing he gave her the ring There were tears in her eyes He said I pray I'm not alone In my dreams about forever That you and I could become one And always be together We'd grow old and wise Through all the days For worse or for better And now be true inside of you Even now more than ever And my lifetime flies but we'll fly farther Into the night where the eyes of loneliness can never bother All our dreams of together uneclipsed by never never And, my, time flies it's in your eyes, but we'll fly farther Fifty years have ridden off into the sunset And the tears that we have cried have overflown Here we are counting scars, wounds of life's ending upset You're with me and I with you and I will never forget
And, my, time flies but we'll fly farther Into the night where the eyes of loneliness will never bother All our dreams of together uneclipsed by never never And, my, time flies it's in your eyes, but we'll fly farther He picked her up some flowers on a Sunday afternoon He rode the Greyhound bus past the house they used to swoon He knelt beside the grave, hung his head, a teardrop fell And on the stone epitaph show the words he knew so well And, my, time flies but we'll fly farther Into the night where the eyes of loneliness can never bother All our dreams of together uneclipsed by never never And my time finds it's in your eyes, but we'll fly farther (My, time flies) We'll fly farther Into the night where the eyes of loneliness can never bother All our dreams of together, uneclipsed by never never And my time finds it's in your eyes, but we'll fly farther We'll fly farther We'll fly farther
