As time begins to burn itself upon me
And the days are growing very short
People try the hardest to reject me
But in a way their conscience will be torn
Something is happening to me day by day
My pebble on the beach is getting washed away
I've given everyhing that was mine to give
And now I turn around to find
That there's no time to live
So often I've seen the big wheel of fortune
Spinning for the man that holds the ace
There's many that would change their places for me
But come to find I've never seen such lonely days
Something is happening to me day by day
My pebble on the beach is getting washed away
I've given everyhing that was mine to give
And now I turn around to find
That there's no time to live
And the days are growing very short
People try the hardest to reject me
But in a way their conscience will be torn
Something is happening to me day by day
My pebble on the beach is getting washed away
I've given everyhing that was mine to give
And now I turn around to find
That there's no time to live
So often I've seen the big wheel of fortune
Spinning for the man that holds the ace
There's many that would change their places for me
But come to find I've never seen such lonely days
Something is happening to me day by day
My pebble on the beach is getting washed away
I've given everyhing that was mine to give
And now I turn around to find
That there's no time to live
