Letra de Battling the Years

Time is surely growing shorter I work my fingers to the bone Hours pass without resistance Every day is here and gone I keep battling the years I fight for all the time I've wasted here But I'm pulling back my forces Because this battle can't be won You might earn yourself a fortune The finest diamonds you may choose But oh never will you earn your days back This is something you must lose And you may hear the masses cheering Spread your name from ear to ear But no sound requites the years behind you That is something you must lose Oh, the days when I was younger Every fear was out of sight The future always seemed so distant The future always seemed so bright I keep pushing 'round the bend I've no idea where this trail should end I won't know when I've arrived I'll keep on pushing till I die I might earn myself a fortune The finest diamonds I may choose But oh, never will I earn my days back That is something I must lose I might hear the masses cheering Spread my name from ear to ear But no sound requites the years behind me That is something I must lose That is something I must lose
