Where does time go
Does it matter, don't matter
Life is a ride on a train
Where does time stop
Does it matter, don't matter
Life is to me but a game

First you're a baby
In arms safe and warm
Someone is always there
Then before long
You're a cute little toddler
Getting in everyone's hair
Tricycles, lollipops
Choo-choo trains, fun and games
All your time spent on play
Before you know it
You're going to grade school
Time is just slipping away

Where does time go
Does it matter, it matters
Seems that it's running away
Where does time stop
Does it matter, it matters
Make the best of every day
Now you're a teen
And you're learnin' 'bout everything
Goin' out on your first date
Then before long
It's exams and the senior prom
Soon you'll be choosing a mate
Working and paying bills, responsibilities
There's not much time left to play
Before you know it, you've found a true love
Today is your wedding day

Where does time go
Does it matter, don't matter
Life is a ride on a train
Where does time stop
Does it matter, don't matter
Life is to me but a game, oh...

Where does time go
Does it matter, it matters
Seems that it's running away
(Start to running away)
Where does time stop
Does it matter, it matters
Make the best of every day, yeah
Now you're a family
As happy as you can be
Complete with a boy and a girl
Before too long, they'll be grown
And out on their own
Finding their place in the world
Teach them and love them now
Constantly show them how
To do things the positive way
Remembering someone did
All the same things for you
It seems just like yesterday, yeah

Where does time go
Does it matter, don't matter
Life is a ride on a train
Where does time stop
Does it matter, don't matter
Life is to me but a game

Where does time go
Does it matter, it matters
Seems that it's running away, yeah
Where does time stop
Does it matter, it matters
Make the best of every day
Where does time go
Where does time stop
Oh, does it matter
Does it really, really, really
Really matter

Where does time go
Oh, where, yeah
Where does time stop
Does it matter, matter
Matter, matter, oh...
