The Primitives

Time Slips Away

Album: Echoes And Rhymes [2012]

There in the hazy shade

Bees were buzzing around the flowers

Working hard till the end of day

While I counted the hours

 

I saw the clouds high in the sky

All different but all the same

And at times colours they came and went

While we played our games

 

Yesterday, is the day to remind us

Time slips away

Time slips away, time slips away

 

Yesterday, is the day to remind us

Time slips away

Time slips away, time slips away

 

Yesterday, is the day to remind us

Time slips away

Time slips away, time slips away

 

And that's how it is, baby, the world remains

While you don't and I don't?

So let's sing all together now

Let's sing all together now

 

Yesterday, is the day to remind us

Time slips away

Time slips away, time slips away
