Bregenz Railway Station. Austria |
Time
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but its sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way, but you’re older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter; never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the english way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I’d something more to say
Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
And when I come home cold and tired
Its good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells.

Great post! Love the image.
great image. i always love your photos.
Time? What is time? When is time? It's either in the past or the future, it is never now.
I agree with Brattcat, the same word occurred to me: haunting. Love the song choice, too! PF can accompany a haunting image like no one else.
Superb choice for a Theme Day!
I forget to tell that I love this song!
Time time slipping away... But tomorrow's never guaranteed. Lol, this is to down for me. {The song I mean.}
A Moody, haunting and interesting image.
PF is endless. Same the theme of time.
Nice shot with a creative composition!
