[Intro]
Time slips like shadows, soft and slow
We count the dawns as they come and go
[Verse 1]
A child laughs at rain on a hopeful street
Small hands tracing circles where futures meet
In every spark of play, a seed is sown
A simple question: where is tomorrow grown?
[Pre-Chorus]
Watch the tiny steps become a steady pace
Every giggle turns to wisdom in the face
[Chorus]
Time is a patient river, winding true
Carving the map of me and you
From first light to the fading glow of night
We rise, we learn, we hold on tight
[Verse 2]
A middle-aged man wears miles like a coat
Stories stitched in lines that softly wrote
A balance found between dream and deed
Strength that sows hope in every need
[Pre-Chorus]
Let the years teach what the heart already knows
That growth is a garden that steadily grows
[Chorus]
Time is a patient river, winding true
Carving the map of me and you
From first light to the fading glow of night
We rise, we learn, we hold on tight
[Bridge]
Then comes the elder with a tempered smile
Wisdom like sunlight after rain for a while
He shares the quiet truth: life flows on
In every ending, a new dawn is drawn
[Chorus]
Time is a patient river, winding true
Carving the map of me and you
From first light to the fading glow of night
We rise, we learn, we hold on tight
[Outro]
So the faces change, but the song remains—bright and free
Continuing, unwinding, forever we will be
