Well, I've seen my chances come
And go and come back 'round again
But everytime they took me by surprise

There was a day I used to want
The things I did not have
But it's never better on the other side

I've never gone so far that I've
Forgotten my way home
The best things always brings you back again
Over and over

chorus:
The hands of time
Go 'round and 'round
They don't slow down when you lose you way
At every turn
The things you learn
You wear them proud like you wear your name
And as you go
On down that road
Don't let the dust get in your eyes
It blows in the winds of change

Hunger is no stranger
Oh, I've sat with him before
And everything I've done has not been good

And as I've tried to make my stand
I've had to learn to fall
And maybe I have seen more than I should
But I've never gone so far that I've
Forgotten my way home
The best things always bring you back again
Over and over

chorus

And I held on to my life
I kept my dreams alive
And the dream ain't over
Over and Over

The hands of time
Go 'round and 'round
They don't slow down when you lose you way
At every turn
The things you learn
You wear them proud like you wear your name
And as you go
On down that road
Don't let the dust get in your eyes
It blows in the winds of change
It blows in the winds of change
The winds of change
