00:15Just a boy beside the window
00:19Watching clouds begin to fade
00:22Every sunset feels much quicker
00:26Than it did the day before today
00:29I still draw stars upon my notebook
00:33Still believe they know my name
00:36But the hands upon the old clock
00:40Never seem to stay the same
00:44And I wonder where the slow days go
00:47The summer nights I used to know
00:51Why every year moves faster than the last
00:56If time could hear me calling
01:01Would it slow its wings tonight
01:03Would it stay beside a young boy
01:08Dreaming underneath the light
01:11There's a thousand songs inside me
01:15A million roads I wanna find
01:18I'm afraid of growing older
01:22Before I've had the chance to shine
01:26If time runs softly
01:30Maybe I'll be alright
01:35Mama says the world keeps turning
01:38Even when we're standing still
01:42Every memory becomes a picture
01:45No matter how hard you try to feel
01:49I wanna build a life worth singing
01:53Fill the skies with melodies
01:56Hold on to the sound of laughter
02:00Before it disappears from me
02:03Cause every moment leaves so fast
02:07Like footprints washing from the sound
02:10And I'm trying just to hold them in my hands
02:17If time could hear me calling
02:20Would it slow its wings tonight
02:23Would it stay beside a young boy
02:27Dreaming underneath the light
02:30There's a thousand songs inside me
02:34A million roads I wanna find
02:38I'm afraid of growing older
02:41Before I've had the chance to shine
02:45If time runs softly
02:49Maybe I'll be alright
02:55One day these streets will change
02:58And I may change too
03:01But somewhere in the music
03:05The child still sings the truth
03:08So let the moment linger
03:12Before the daylight fades
03:15Cause even little heartbeats
03:19Can echo through the ages
03:25If time could hear us singing
03:29Maybe it would slow tonight
03:32Maybe every dream we're holding
03:36Could survive beyond the light
03:40There's a fire in your heart
03:43That the years can never hide
03:48And though the world keeps turning
03:51Hope is still alive
03:57If time runs softly
04:00I won't say goodbye
04:15If time runs softly
04:18Stay a while with me
04:25Hmm
04:26Hmm
04:27Hmm
04:28Hmm
04:28Hmm
04:29Hmm
04:31Hmm
04:32Hmm
04:33Hmm
04:33Amen.
