[Verse]
The crescent moon is hanging
just above the water
in the distance,
I am watching the reflection
Sitting at the bar with a
Bullet Rye on ice,
trying not to draw too much attention
[Pre-Chorus]
A familiar feeling washing over me
A sweet and beautiful kind of melancholy
[Verse]
The evening sky is trying
Gently to remind me
That it's time to maybe
Sit a count my blessings
Looking at the stars while I
Begin to recognize
That I've had too many goods times to mention
[Pre-Chorus]
But there's a future I know I'll never see
It's a sweet and beautiful kind of melancholy
[Chorus]
Time
Goes by
I know I have to laugh to keep from cryin'
I don't
Ask why
'Cause There's nothin' I can do
[Verse]
The past is slowly drifting
Through my memory
And sometimes I confuse it with the present
It shouldn't be that hard but I
Don't understand it anyway
I haven't even figured out the questions
It's all that living was supposed to be
It's a sweet and beautiful kind of melancholy
[Chorus]
Time
Goes by
I know I have to laugh to keep from cryin'
I don't
Ask why
There's nothin' I can do but keep on tryin'
Time
Goes by
Sometimes it seems to go so slow sometimes it' flyin
I don't
Ask why
'cause there's nothin' I can do
