Time Is A Master Thief / Single
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey
(v1)
We watch him fly past
Never thinking to ask
Exactly what did we lose
(v2)
Then we face the truth
That he stole our youth
He’s a man we can’t refuse
(chorus)
Like a cat in the night
Slipping through the light
He never finds relief
He steals a day, every day
Old Man Time
Is a master thief
(v3)
When we’re killing time
He doesn’t mind
Some things we can’t delay
(v4)
One day we’ll look back
At our hair, once black
And notice it’s turned gray
(bridge)
We’ve always been told that we’ll get old
When we’re young we don’t care
But as we get older, we look over our shoulder
And find he’s always standing there
(chorus)
Like a cat in the night
Slipping through the light
He never finds relief
He steals a day, every day
Old Man Time
Is a master thief
