Winter never seemed so cold
You've grown old
And time has slipped away
Refrain:
Yesterday was just a dream
Faded schemes
Now turned silver grey
As old friends pass away
And yet a baby's born
Life is but a grain of sand, washed away
Beneath the morning tide
Precious hours grow too few
Somehow you must try to justify
The aging of your mind and yet a baby's born
Newborn baby, don't you cry no more
Shed no tears for a passing soul (2x)
You've grown old
And time has slipped away
Refrain:
Yesterday was just a dream
Faded schemes
Now turned silver grey
As old friends pass away
And yet a baby's born
Life is but a grain of sand, washed away
Beneath the morning tide
Precious hours grow too few
Somehow you must try to justify
The aging of your mind and yet a baby's born
Newborn baby, don't you cry no more
Shed no tears for a passing soul (2x)
