recording of 1982
from
Love Me Tender (MCA MCAD-886)
I woke up this morning and looked at my life
Filled with so much sorrow and grief
And in my troubled mind
I could see through all my strife
That time is only a thief
Yes time is a thief
That will steal your tomorrow's
And leave you only yesterday
Yes time is a thief
That will rob you of your years
Your youth the only ransom you can pay
So treasure each little moment
Don't let a single minute slip away
Because time is a thief
That will rob you of your years
And never return one yesterday
Oh time is a thief
That will rob you of your years
And never return one yesterday
Here is the table of contents.
