It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
The things that they think are new
I used to do
I sit and watch
As time goes by

Why do i feel so alone
Was i a fool to leave my home
Smiling faces i can see
But they're not for me
I sit and watch
As time goes by

My riches can't buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
All i hear is the sound of rain
falling on the ground
I sit and watch
As time goes by

hmmm... hmmm...

All i hear is the sound of rain
falling on the ground
I sit and watch
As time goes by

I sit and watch
As time goes by

I sit and watch
As time goes by...
