I celebrate—
As I watch every tick and tock
While I sit and stare at the clock
I celebrate—
The passing of the last suns ray
A landmark of another day
I celebrate—
Each sign of a change of season
All for my own special reason
I celebrate—
For as time moves steadily on
I do not mourn that time is gone
I celebrate—
For as the sands of time fall down
I wear a smile, not a frown
But I celebrate—
Because as each minute goes past
I'm closer to when at long last
You will be held close in my arms
Where I can protect you from harm
Comfort your pain, your doubts and fears
And gently kiss away your tears
So as time moves steadily on
I do not mourn that time is gone
And as the sands of time fall down
I wear a smile, not a frown
I celebrate!
