I caught up with my dad today and he had a lot of things to say
I can't recall a time that he talked more
He spoke of almost fifty years told me stories I'd been dying to hear
I let him go on even if I'd heard them before

Remember that old car I had the one I bought that made your grandma mad
I seen it today when I was letting the dogs back in
A young man was behind the wheel and he had a girl beside him
With looks that could kill and as they drove out of sight it made me feel young again
Time's just a runaway bride
You can't make it stop but you can sure as hell try
If time's going to take its time so am I

I came across some photographs and I kept the ones that only made me laugh
And that one of us all the one I thought I lost
I framed that one of you from junior high and these past few years it's helped me get by
How you hung in there when your mom and I could not

Time's just a runaway bride
You can't make it stop but you can sure as hell try
If time's going to take its time so am I

I've been having the strangest dream at nigh
Everybody there is dressed in black and white
I see them all in rows of chairs and I lift a veil I don't see nothing there
But I keep asking for the time

I hope I didn't keep you long so now you know what's been going on
Besides all of that son when you coming home
The sun sure is sinking low and with that said he let me go
We both forget sometimes we're in two different time zones

Time's just a runaway bride
You can't make it stop but you can sure as hell try
If time's going to take its time so am I
