Last Year's Man Lyrics

So now, is the time
To take my stand
Just for once
I tried to catch this time
In my hands
But it slips through
It slips through like sand
Nothing is still
Yet nothing remains
Of last year's, last year's man

Oh, where did they go?
Your family was small
You watch them grow
But time went so fast
When you want them to stay
To stay the same
Yet nothing remains
And no one who stays the same
And no one's to blame

But I know and I know, and I know and I know it's a game
This game we play
I'm trying to get through the day and feel no shame
I feel no shame

Oh, and I know and I know, and I know and I know it's a game
This game we play
I'm trying to get through these days
And I know and I know, and I know and I know
And I know and I know, and I know it's a cruel game
This game we play
Last year's man
You did the best you can

Last year's man
