Time keeps on ticking Lyrics

You just don't understand you don't really know

How hard it is to be a mother watchin' love come and go

My babies don't see the woman who raised me tall

Now I'm caught in the middle tryin' to balance it all

Two hearts to care for one soul to keep

The weight of the world but I still don't weep

It ain't easy no it ain't light

But I hold on strong through the coldest nights

Time keeps tickin' love don't wait

Life moves fast don't make no since

Hold your people keep 'em close

'Cause one day you'll miss 'em the most

It's hard out here reality's tough

At my age I should be livin' it up

Travel the world feel the ocean breeze

Instead I'm givin' all my love where it's most in need

But don't get me wrong no I ain't mad

She took care of me so I give it back

To the young ones fussin' 'bout their mom and dad

One day you'll wish for the love you had

Time keeps tickin' love don't wait

Life moves fast don't make no since

Hold your people keep 'em close

'Cause one day you'll miss 'em the most

I believe oh I believe

God's got a plan for me

One day soon I'll spread my wings

But 'til then I'll do the right thing

Yeah yeah… time keeps tickin'
