Turn Into Loss Video (MV)

You arrive in the world like the movie's big star
Wondering if you'll fly high and how far
It's a thrill of a journey, there are places to see
A long winding path to your own destiny
People will say things get better with age
But you'd have to ignore every turn of the page
Who wouldn't choose to be young for a day
With eyesight that's fading and hair... turning grey

Time it moves on and another day gone
Trees turn to gold all the leaves on the lawn
Joy in the moment but the end is the boss
Eventually all things turn... into loss

Ages ago when we all were together
Hard to believe that it wasn't forever
Grandparents truly were larger than life
Uncles and aunts were young husband and wife
We gather these days to remember the ones
Whose stories have ended, the bankers and nuns
They belong to the ages, made yesterdays great
Their dreams and their hopes are now endings... and fate

Time it moves on and another day gone
Trees turn to gold all the leaves on the lawn
Joy in the moment but the end is the boss
Eventually all things turn...into loss

I lived in a time, I remember a place
Snowflakes would fall on my tongue and my face
Yes there were storms with a crack and a boom
But spring would return and flowers would bloom
It may not be all that much different, I guess
But nowadays nature just seems like a mess
Disaster and crisis, people leaving in haste
Reporter in flood waters up... to her waist

Time it moves on and another day gone
Trees turn to gold all the leaves on the lawn
Joy in the moment but the end is the boss
Eventually all things turn... into loss

You probably should pay no attention to me
Others can see time more positively
To start is to end seems to me plain as day
I'll never know why I just see things this way

Small consolation but I'll tell you the rest
From the saddest of things to the best of the best
Things don't last forever, even Earth it gets old

So the miracle you're living
The love that you're giving

The warmth that you're feeling
The paint you see peeling

The days that are numbered
The sky that just thundered

The tree on your lawn
The rook and the pawn

A song in your head
When you fall into bed

The thought you just had
Of one thing or another
The light in the eye of
Your daughter or mother

Things don't last forever
Even Earth it gets old
So each raindrop and kiss is as precious
As gold
