Meeting My Teacher

An evening in July, after twenty years gone by I met her and we went out for a walk She asked: "How have you been doin` in the first half of your life ? Let me know if you you wanna talk" Well, I`ve been around and put my feet back on the ground "Had some hard times, lucky now they`re gone..." "Was that all you wanted - or is there somethin` else for you my son ?" The train is rollin` on time On the way to a peaceful land The train is rollin` on time Get on board - you will understand Get on board - you will understand She told me `bout here own way that she had grown That nothing stayed the way it used to be But things that we have taught you about what life is meant to be Some will never change, as you will see... You can choose the life you live and walk on for a while Make it half the way and play your role But what if you discover, and let out what is deep down in your soul ?" The train is rollin` on time... It never has been easy to make it all the way I see your hair is turnin` grey And you`ll be lookin` back again, after some more years Don`t let them pass away The train is rollin` on time...
