Description
The melody has been kicking around in my head forever. Last week when most of us did the time change many of the words came to me. This song is for my wife. Who greets me after work EVERY day with a smile. Who has to lift a headphone to let me know supper is ready. Who doesn't mind my arms being around a guitar more than her. Thank you.

Lyrics
Watch the hands so unforgiving.
Sweep past the hours without a glance.
See the daybreak turn into evening.
And know the sun will rise again.
All the leaves they are turning.
The silent snow will soon arrive.
But when the birds they all start singing.
Another season past us by.
CHORUS
I want to stop it.
But I don't know how.
I want to save each day.
That I spend with you.
And when I look
at the years gone by.
Then I stop and smile.
They were with you.
Remember when this was taken?
They're all grown up and on their own.
I think your touch of grey is beauty.
The life we've had it tells me so.
All the years we are together.
Are not enough for me to show.
Just how much I truly love you.
And that time makes my love grow.
CHORUS
I want to stop it.
But I don't know how.
Want to save each day.
That I spend with you.
When I look
at the years gone by.
Then I stop and smile.
They were with you.
Can't stop time.
