cecil gerry - Slipping Away

I awake at the beginning of the day
trying to weave things so they go my way

Looking for the truth in my mind
life is so short, but it all takes time

There are things I'd want to do
life becomes a habit that I try to work through
So much procrastination takes time from you

Oh! lord please tell me how do I
choose a time to find things to do

I retire in the evening of the day
it seems as though time has just slipped away
