Still

Still

The story goes as stories will

One afternoon beside

Some bolted garden gate

One "Howdy do", and soon, so soon

I'm late, I'm late, so late

Oh, I'm ahead of my time still

If I keep moving

Forward, and I fall behind still

So much to do when

But how can I stop the clock in me

When I'm chasing me still

Time is chasing me still

Still

Can't stories go where stories will?

Here, here, they do

Each afternoon stays rosy late

Just me and you, our golden room

Let the mad queen wait

Stay where the grasses sway

The river stopped moving

Here, with the lazy blue day

Your roses just blooming

So why can't we linger and dream?

Walk with me still

Linger on with me still

Still our stories know

It is until we run it through

So much to do, adieu, adieu

Away, away

One look at you

And what's the use

I've got my day

Run and play with me still

On this page with me still

Stay

And stay with me still

Time is chasing me still

Still
