I DON'T KNOW WHERE THE TIME HAS GONE

I don't know where the time has gone
I don't know where it has gone
So many memories are still alive in me
So much more travelin' to get where I must be
And the journey's long
And the time is short
But my friends I promise you I'll be there
I don't know where the time has gone
I don't know where it has gone
So many friends that I need to see
So many roads to travel to get where I must be
And the journey's hard
And the time's about gone
But my friends I promise you I'll be there
I remember that 707 gettin' ready to roll
Down that lonesome runway headin' for hell's hole
I remember late at night how the monsoon winds would blow
Takin' me down deep in sleep 'til my body left my soul
I don't know where the time has gone
I don't know where it has gone
So many hopes and dreams are still a part of me
So many feelings waiting to be free
And the journey's blessed
As we struggle along
But my friends I promise you I'll be there
Time is an anchor for every man
Time is a vapor we don't understand
Time is a measure to make you free
Time is the journey where you need to be
I don't know where the time has gone
I don't know where it has gone
