C#            G#m
Hot pink skies
F#              C#
twilight of the day
C#
I think that I've been
G#m             F#          C#
going about this  the wrong way
C#           G#m
Kids on my street
got it right man
F#                C#
Barefoot hide and seek
   C#
My best friend she
      G#m
lives up the road
        F#
Haven't talked to
       C#
her in weeks

Chorus:
   C#
Oh time don't blind
     C#/B
me I am so sorry
     F#
I've been swept up
      D#
in my own concerns
        C#
And the worldly matters they
C#/B                 F#
just don't matter at all
   D#
No not at all

I keep on walking
I stop ditching all my plans
I want to climb that cedar tree
And leave me in good hands
What happened to me
On the way to something higher?
What will be left when I have all that I desire?

Chorus:
Oh, time don't blind me, I am so sorry
I've been swept up in my own concerns
And the worldly matters
They just don't matter at all
No, not at all
No, not at all

(Time got from me, I'm so sorry)
(I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry)
(Just don't cry, just don't cry)
(Just don't cry, just don't cry)
(Time got from me, I'm so sorry)
(I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry)
(Just don't cry, just don't cry)
(Just don't cry, just don't cry)
(Just don't cry, just don't cry)
(Just don't cry, just don't cry)
(Just don't cry, just don't cry)
(Just don't cry, just don't cry)
