Original Songs by Kent Newsome

Funny as the Time


I was thinking back the other night
To all the tears we shed
And all the times we tried to talk
When not a word was said

We always thought we could talk it out
Somehow we never did
I guess we thought the only safe heart
Is one that you keep hid

Chorus:
Now it all seems so funny
As funny as the time
That lies between the here and now
And what got left behind
The years stretch out beside us
Like some unspoken line
From a life that could have been
As funny as the time

But all the years that have come and gone
Have helped to ease the pain
And when I think of you I smile
I hope you do the same

Bridge:
I used to love the way your smile
Danced across your face
My mind keeps waltzing back to a time
That can never be replaced

Chorus:
Now it all seems so funny
As funny as the time
That lies between the here and now
And what got left behind
The years stretch out beside us
Like some unspoken line
From a life that could have been
As funny as the time
