Stop to watch the flowers Stop to watch them grow 'Cause all of your minutes and hours Will soon be gone And one day you'll pick up your children For the very, very last time So open your heart and fill it With the light Before the moment turns into nostalgia Before the bones in our bodies grow old Before we turn back to stars, let me hold you Before it's gone Before it's all gone Before it's gone Before it's all gone Before it's gone Time never stops not for no-one One minute we're here, then we're not So hold on to times that are golden Before they're gone Before the moment turns into nostalgia Before the bones in our bodies grow old Before we turn back to stars, let me hold you Before it's gone Before it's all gone Before it's gone Before it's all gone Before it's gone Another year on happy birthday Another journey around the Sun So hold on to ones that are golden Before they're gone
