Life goes by. It seems to speed up as you get older. I have found that it is best to live in the now. Most people don't do that and end up like the man in this song having nothing but pictures in the end. I co wrote this with a young lady named Lee. Unfortunately I don't remember her last name, so Lee, if you hear this please contact me and tell me your last name. I guess the old guy in this song isn't the only senile one.
